140 Confirm or reject the lab. In Korea (Oct. DAMA result 2002). Summary • Because of the variety of physics programme, there are various underground labs. • Many underground labs. have their own future program. This is good, because the requirements to the underground labs depend on the experiments (physics). • In general, deeper site is better as far as backgrounds are concerned. However, required depth depends of the experiment. • For DM and ゚゚ experiments, lower n, ? and are also important. • There are many factors that characterize the lab., but let me plot….
