Abstract

In September 2022, Yemilab, a new underground laboratory, was finally completed in Jeongseon, Gangwon Province, South Korea. Situated at a depth of 1000 m, it boasts an exclusive experimental area of 3000 m2. Currently, preparations are in progress for the AMoRE-II experiment, which aims to investigate neutrinoless double beta decay, as well as for the COSINE-100 upgrade (COSINE-100U), a direct dark matter detection experiment. Both experiments are scheduled to commence in the second quarter of 2024 at Yemilab. Furthermore, the facility encompasses a cylindrical pit, approximately 6300 m3 in volume, designed to serve as a multipurpose laboratory. This laboratory will facilitate next-generation experiments focusing on neutrinos, dark matter, and related areas of research. This article presents a detailed overview of Yemilab’s construction, infrastructure, and its pivotal physics programs.

耶米实验室,韩国新的地下实验室
2022 年 9 月,位于韩国江原道旌善市的新型地下实验室 Yemilab 终于竣工。该实验室位于地下 1000 米深处,拥有 3000 平方米的专属实验区。目前,旨在研究无中子双贝塔衰变的 AMoRE-II 实验和直接暗物质探测实验 COSINE-100 升级版(COSINE-100U)的准备工作正在进行之中。这两项实验计划于 2024 年第二季度在耶米拉布启动。此外,该设施还包括一个容积约为 6300 立方米的圆柱形坑,设计用作多功能实验室。该实验室将为侧重于中微子、暗物质和相关研究领域的下一代实验提供便利。本文详细介绍了耶米实验室的建设、基础设施及其关键物理项目。
