We propose a feasibility study into the use of the Boulby Underground Laboratory as a host facility for future major international rare event search experiments in an ultra-low background environment. The outcome will be a report detailing typical experimental requirements and expectations for the construction and operation of a host facility, informed by a conceptual design level engineering study. Use cases from the fields of direct dark matter searches, and neutrinoless double-beta decay, will form the first input. There will be consultation with the wider community on possible candidate experiments. The study will include a recommendation on future development steps for Boulby to evolve as an international facility together with the associated estimated costs involved.

我们提出了一个可行性研究，使用的博尔比地下实验室作为主机设施，未来重大国际罕见事件搜索实验在超低背景环境。其结果将是一份报告，详细说明典型的实验要求和期望的建设和运营的主机设施，由概念设计水平的工程研究。来自直接暗物质搜索和无中微子双β衰变领域的用例将形成第一个输入。将与更广泛的社区就可能的候选实验进行协商。这项研究将包括一项关于博尔比今后发展步骤的建议，以使其发展成为一个国际设施，同时还将包括所涉的相关估计费用。
