TL;DR: The first results of a direct search for dark matter operating in the underground Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) and searching for the rare nuclear recoils possibly induced by weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) were reported in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a large scale modular system connecting fluid receiving, purification and fluid delivery processes was developed for Borexino solar neutrino detector, which was required to meet exceptional requirements for cleanliness and leaktightness.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the light yield of the DarkSide-10 detector using the readily-identifiable full-absorption peaks from gamma ray sources combined with single-photo-electron calibrations using low-occupancy laser pulses.

TL;DR: The DarkSide-50 detector as discussed by the authors is a two-phase time projection chamber (TPC) with liquid argon as the target material for the scattering of dark matter particles, achieving a sensitivity to dark matter spin-independent scattering cross section of 10−45 cm2 within 3 years of operation.

TL;DR: DarkSide-50 is a two phase argon TPC for direct dark matter detection which is installed at the Gran Sasso underground laboratory, Italy as mentioned in this paper, with a 50-kg active volume and will make use of underground argon low in 39 Ar.
