Description

DarkSide utilizes the 39Ar-depleted argon as target and the dual-phase Time Projection Chambers technology to search for WIMP signal. In this talk, I will review the recent results of the DarkSide-50 experiment, currently running at LNGS with 50-kg fiducial mass. I will also present the status of the DarkSide-20k experiment with 20-tonne fiducial mass. Plans for a further step towards a 300-tonne detector will be presented as well.
