External research project guidelines
1-1 Conduct dark matter research (preferably with PandaX data) and carry out technological research & development, serving the general scientific needs of PandaX.
1-2 Perform phenomenological and technical studies on indirect detection and collider detection of dark matter.
2-1 Investigations of using low and high energy neutrino data, including DBD spectrum, neutrino-dark matter interaction, and multi-messenger physics, in connection with PandaX, TRIDENT, and DarkSHINE detectors, to access various aspects of dark matter and neutrino interactions and new physics. Precise understanding of background counts and spectral shapes proves critical for enhancing sensitivity in dark matter searches and its interactions with neutrinos.
3-1 Conduct research on the production and detection of dark matter (such as axions and dark photons) using laser plasma, and propose experimental scheme designs.
3-2 Perform scheme design studies for single-photon detection in axion dark matter searches, focusing on light-shining-through-a-wall experiments based on ultra-intense laser plasma axion generation.
4-1 Fiber assignment strategy and pipeline development for the JUST telescope.
4-2 Application of machine learning in large-scale dark matter distribution mapping and property identification.
