Abstract

The SABRE (Sodium iodide with Active Background REjection) experiment aims to provide a model independent test of the signal observed by DAMA/LIBRA by detecting an annual modulation from dark matter interactions in ultra-high purity NaI(Tl) crystals. SABRE consists of two detectors: SABRE North, located at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS), and SABRE South, located at the newly completed Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory (SUPL) in Stawell, Australia - the first deep underground laboratory in the Southern Hemisphere. Here we present the status of both the SABRE South experiment and SUPL.
