Dark matter is an important part of the universe, but its fundamental properties remain mysterious. If dark matter is governed by a theory similar to the strong force between quarks, then computational methods are required.
Work on this topic has been done in partnership with researchers at the University of Southern Denmark and also at York.

A long range planning process was driven by the Canadian subatomic physics research community.
As a committee, we reviewed the community's input and formulated the long range plan.
