Understand

The DAMIC (Dark Matter in CCDs) experiment uses high resistivity, scientific grade CCDs to search for dark matter.

The CCD's low electronic noise allows an unprecedently low energy threshold of a few tens of eV that make it possible to detect silicon recoils resulting from interactions of low mass WIMPs.
In addition the CCD's high spatial resolution and the excellent energy response results in very effective background identification techniques.
The experiment has a unique sensitivity to dark matter particles with masses below 10 GeV/c$^2$.
