Detecting on Earth the missing matter of the Universe — •Federica Petricca — Max-Planck-Institut für Physik, Föhringer Ring 6, D-80805 München

Nowadays, we have an extremely accurate model of our Universe, but still, most of its content eludes our observation. Detecting with Earth-bound experiments the missing matter is one of the most intriguing challenges in modern physics and is of compelling necessity for our understanding. The experimental efforts to decipher the nature of dark matter underwent amazing development in recent years, and a new generation of large exposure high sensitivity detectors is ready to accept the challenge. In this contest, a multi-target multi-technology approach is needed to look into the different mass regions of possible dark matter candidates to maximise the detection probability. The most sensitive approaches that are opening new frontiers of this search will be reviewed together with a glance on future perspectives. Although not certain, a discovery might be at hand.
