DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Galbiati\, Cristiano (Princeton University)\nExperim
 enters from four different argon dark matter searches have joined their fo
 rces 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
  scale of a few tens of tonnes is the DarkSide-20k experiment\, a 20-tonne
  fiducial volume dual-phase TPC to be operated at LNGS with an underground
  argon fill\, designed to collect an exposure of 100 tonne×years\, comple
 tely free of neutron-induced nuclear recoil background and all electron re
 coil background.  DarkSide-20k is set to start operating by 2023 and will 
 have sensitivity to WIMP-nucleon spin-independent cross sections of 7.4×1
 0−48 cm2 for WIMPs of 1 TeV/c2 mass\, to be achieved during a 10 year ru
 n with an exposure of 200 tonne×years.  DarkSide-20k will explore the WIM
 P-nucleon cross-section down to the edge of the ’neutrino floor’\, whe
 re coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering from environmental neutrinos induc
 e nuclear recoils in the detector.\n	A second step in the program is the c
 onstruction and operation of Argo\, a detector with a fiducial mass of a f
 ew hundred tonnes\, capable of collecting an exposure of several thousands
  of tonne×years\, completely free of all backgrounds on top of CNNS\, sla
 ted for a 2030 start.\n\nhttps://indico.icrr.u-tokyo.ac.jp/event/259/contr

DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Yamashita\, Masaki (ICRR\, The University of Tokyo)\
 nDirect dark matter searches have been conducted for more than 30 years in
  the underground laboratories to look for signals via dark matter-nucleus 
 elastic scattering of its target materials.  Weakly interacting massive pa
 rticles   as  dark matter candidates arise naturally in various theories\,
  such as Supersymmetry\, Extra Dimensions.  WIMPs interact through the wea
 k interaction and can efficiently transfer kinetic energy by the scatterin
 g from atomic nuclei\, the WIMP model can be tested by searching for nucle
 ar recoils in a sensitive\, low-radioactivity detector.  This review talk 
 will focus on a liquid xenon base detectors among those searches  which in
 clude current bounds and future prospects.\n\nhttps://indico.icrr.u-tokyo.

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