Future plans for the Boulby Underground Laboratory
- Paul Scovell (STFC,Boulby Mine,PPD)
11:30 - 12:00
The Boulby Underground Laboratory is the UK’s deep underground laboratory and has been operating in one form or another since the 1990s. In recent years the lab has expanded to a dedicated clean room space but it is considered a medium sized laboratory. We are about to kickstart a journey that will hopefully lead to a rapid expansion of the underground space to accommodate future large scale rare event searches. This talk will discuss these plans along with other possible future experiments at the small/medium scale.
12:00 LhARA project and the SmartPhantom instrument - John Matheson (STFC,RAL,PPD)
