The Centre of Excellence for Dark Matter Particle Physics will deliver breakthroughs in our understanding of the Universe through the pursuit of the discovery of dark matter particles which comprise 80% of the mass of the universe. It assembles for the first time a strong and diverse team of physicists from particle, nuclear, and quantum physics as well as particle astrophysics. It will deliver high-profile experiments using new cutting-edge technologies. The Centre will exploit the unique geographical location of the first underground physics lab in the Southern Hemisphere. The ultra-sensitive detectors and ultra-low radiation techniques will translate into a broad range of industrial applications and train a new generation of scientists.

暗物质粒子物理卓越中心将通过追求暗物质粒子的发现为我们对宇宙的理解带来突破，暗物质粒子占宇宙质量的80%。它首次汇集了来自粒子、核、量子物理学以及粒子天体物理学的强大而多样化的物理学家团队。它将使用新的尖端技术进行备受瞩目的实验。该中心将利用南半球第一个地下物理实验室的独特地理位置。超灵敏探测器和超低辐射技术将转化为广泛的工业应用，并培养新一代科学家。
