{wiki=Cryogenic_Dark_Matter_Search}
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) is an experimental program designed to detect and study dark matter, which is a form of matter that does not emit, absorb, or reflect light, making it invisible and detectable only through its gravitational effects on visible matter. CDMS specifically focuses on searching for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), which are one of the leading theoretical candidates for dark matter.
