DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Cristiano Galbiati (Princeton University)\nExperimen
 ters from four different argon dark matter searches have joined their forc
 es in the the “Global Argon Dark Matter Collaboration” to carry out a 
 unified program for dark matter direct detection.\n	The next step at the s
 cale of a few tens of tonnes is the DarkSide-20k experiment\, a 20-tonne f
 iducial volume dual-phase TPC to be operated at LNGS with an underground a
 rgon fill\, designed to collect an exposure of 100 tonne×years\, complete
 ly free of neutron-induced nuclear recoil background and all electron reco
 il background.  DarkSide-20k is set to start operating by 2023 and will ha
 ve sensitivity to WIMP-nucleon spin-independent cross sections of 7.4×10
 −48 cm2 for WIMPs of 1 TeV/c2 mass\, to be achieved during a 10 year run
  with an exposure of 200 tonne×years.  DarkSide-20k will explore the WIMP
 -nucleon cross-section down to the edge of the ’neutrino floor’\, wher
 e coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering from environmental neutrinos induce
  nuclear recoils in the detector.\n	A second step in the program is the co
 nstruction and operation of Argo\, a detector with a fiducial mass of a fe
 w hundred tonnes\, capable of collecting an exposure of several thousands 
 of tonne×years\, completely free of all backgrounds on top of CNNS\, slat
 ed for a 2030 start.\n\nhttps://indico.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/event/259/contri

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Masaki Yamashita (ICRR\, The University of Tokyo)\nD
 irect dark matter searches have been conducted for more than 30 years in t
 he underground laboratories to look for signals via dark matter-nucleus el
 astic scattering of its target materials.  Weakly interacting massive part
 icles   as  dark matter candidates arise naturally in various theories\, s
 uch as Supersymmetry\, Extra Dimensions.  WIMPs interact through the weak 
 interaction and can efficiently transfer kinetic energy by the scattering 
 from atomic nuclei\, the WIMP model can be tested by searching for nuclear
  recoils in a sensitive\, low-radioactivity detector.  This review talk wi
 ll focus on a liquid xenon base detectors among those searches  which incl
 ude current bounds and future prospects.\n\nhttps://indico.icrr.u-tokyo.ac

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Graciela Gelmini (UCLA)\nAfter briefly reviewing the
  WIMP status as dark matter (DM) candidate\, I will mention how the impact
   of the neutrino floor on the direct detection (DD) reach depends on the 
 type of WIMP-nucleus interaction and mass\, and then how  a DD signal woul
 d translate into properties of the DM local velocity distribution\, allowi
 ng to compare different DD data sets  through these predictions (in  a “
 halo-independent” analysis complementary to the usual halo-dependent met
 hod).\n\nhttps://indico.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/event/259/contributions/1659/
