Abstract:
One of the most important question in the cosmology is the understanding of the structure and composition of the Universe. There are some evidences that indicate the presence of matter unseen by common detectors. Until now, there were proposed some theoretical models for this Dark Matter. Some experiments are running in the present, verifying those theories, and an increasing number of new experiments and detectors have been proposed and developed. In this paper, we start with a summary of evidences that suggested the presence of dark matter in the Universe, from cosmological and astrophysical measurements. A comparison between results will done a better understanding of the physics and the requirements for the next generation detectors. The analysis of different parameters of the existent underground facilities represents a useful tool for location of the new detectors.
