This project aims to propose new enhanced effects of hypothetical dark matter particles in atomic and astrophysical phenomena, perform calculations, and motivate new experiments with a higher sensitivity to these particles. The mass of dark matter in the Universe is five times that of ordinary matter, yet its nature is still unknown. This project also aims to improve calculations of the effects of dark matter searched for in underground laboratories including the Australian Stawell laboratory. Relativistic and many-body effects may change the results by orders of magnitude, and proper account of them is important. This may be achieved using our computer codes for high-precision relativistic atomic many-body calculations.

该项目旨在提出假设暗物质颗粒在原子和天体物理现象中的新增强作用，进行计算，并激励对这些颗粒具有更高敏感性的新实验。宇宙中的暗物质是普通物质的五倍，但其性质仍然未知。该项目还旨在改善在包括澳大利亚Stawell实验室在内的地下实验室中搜索的暗物质的影响的计算。相对论和多体效应可能会通过数量级来改变结果，对它们的适当说明很重要。这可以使用我们的计算机代码来实现高精度相对论原子多体的计算。
