Detector system for the first Australian experiment on dark matter: This project involves the installation of equipment for an experiment to detect our galaxy's dark matter via nuclear recoil. Here in the Southern Hemisphere, we have a crucial advantage in the search for dark matter via direct detection, which will allow us to independently test the most persistent and enigmatic signal in the worldwide dark matter detection effort. The detector system, called SABRE South, is designed to be paired with a matching one in the Northern Hemisphere. The research program is addressing one of the most important unsolved problems of contemporary science.

澳大利亚第一个暗物质实验的探测器系统： 该项目涉及安装一个实验设备，通过核反冲来探测我们星系的暗物质。在南半球，我们在通过直接探测寻找暗物质方面具有至关重要的优势，这将使我们能够独立测试全球暗物质探测工作中最持久和最神秘的信号。探测器系统名为SABRE South，设计用于与北方的匹配系统配对。该研究计划正在解决当代科学中最重要的未解决问题之一。
