This project explores the nature of dark matter using advanced nuclear clocks based on Thorium-229. By achieving unprecedented sensitivity, the project aims to investigate ultralight dark matter through innovative theoretical and experimental approaches, potentially transforming our understanding of fundamental physics…
What is the nature of dark matter (DM)?
This central question in physics could be soon addressed thanks to the unprecedented sensitivity of nuclear clocks.
These Th-229-base clocks are set to overcome the inherent limitations of atomic and molecular clocks, which are less sensitive to the nuclear parameters, which dominate almost all motivated models of ultralight DM (ULDM) .
Laser excitation of Th-229 has just reached 1:10^11 sensitivity.
Given that a precision of 1:10^8 suffices to probe DM-m…
