Dark matter research is fundamental breakthrough science, thus its National and Community benefits can only be indirect. This, nevertheless, does not reduce the importance of these benefits. The proposed program strengthens Australian fundamental science by extending it in a new direction, and considerably boosts the quality of theoretical dark matter research in Australia. Since a large part of the proposed work is expected to be performed in international collaboration, positive results will increase the Australian presence on the international astro-particle physics scene. Successful students involved in this project are also expected to assume leading roles in international dark matter research.

暗物质研究是基础性的突破性科学，因此其国家和社区利益只能是间接的。 然而，这并没有降低这些好处的重要性。 该计划通过将其扩展到一个新的方向来加强澳大利亚的基础科学，并大大提高了澳大利亚理论暗物质研究的质量。 由于大部分拟议的工作预计将在国际合作中进行，积极的成果将增加澳大利亚在国际天体粒子物理舞台上的存在。 参与该项目的成功学生也有望在国际暗物质研究中发挥主导作用。
