Description
DarkSide uses a dual-phase Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber to search for WIMP dark matter. The current detector, DarkSide-50, is running since mid 2015 with a target of 50 kg of
Argon from an underground source. In this contribution the latest results of searches of WIMP nucleus interactions, in the WIMP masses range of GeV-TeV, together with results from WIMP electron interactions in the sub-GeV mass range, are fully presented. The future of DarkSide with a new generation experiment, involving a global collaboration from all the current Argon based experiments, is also presented.
