While virtual collaboration has become a cornerstone of modern research, some tasks require hands-on efforts that can only be accomplished in person. Alessio Caminata<\/strong> from INFN Genova<\/strong> visited Astrocent for three days to collaborate with our team on the DarkSide-20k experiment <\/strong>\u2014 a major international initiative in the search for dark matter, one of the greatest unsolved mysteries in physics. The experiment will utilize a highly sensitive detector, to be built at the LNGS underground laboratory<\/strong>, filled with liquid argon to detect the extremely rare interactions between dark matter particles and argon nuclei.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The collaboration between\u00a0Astrocent<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0INFN<\/strong>\u00a0on this topic has been ongoing for several years. It was particularly active during the\u00a0DarkWave project and continues to thrive today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
