The Center for Underground Physics of the Institute for Basic Science (IBS) in Korea has been planning the construction of a deep underground laboratory since 2013 to search for extremely rare interactions such as dark matter and neutrinos. In September 2022, a new underground laboratory, Yemilab, was finally completed in Jeongseon, Gangwon Province, with a depth of 1,000 m and an exclusive experimental area spanning 3,000 m3. The tunnel is encased in limestone and accommodates 17 independent experimental spaces. Over 2 years, from 2023 to 2024, the Yangyang Underground Laboratory facilities will be relocated to Yemilab. Preparations are underway for the AMoRE-II, a neutrinoless double beta decay experiment, scheduled to begin in Q2 2024 at Yemilab. Additionally, Yemilab includes a cylindrical pit with a volume of approximately 6,300 m3, designed as a multipurpose laboratory for next-generation experiments involving neutrinos, dark matter, and related research. This article provides a focused overview of the construction and structure of Yemilab.

夜米实验室建设

韩国基础科学研究所（IBS）地下物理中心自2013年以来一直计划建设一个地下深处实验室，以寻找暗物质和中微子等极其罕见的相互作用。 2022年9月，新的地下实验室Yemilab终于在江原道旌善竣工，深度达1,000 m，专属实验区跨度达3,000 m3。隧道由石灰岩包裹，可容纳 17 个独立的实验空间。从2023年到2024年的两年时间里，襄阳地下实验室设施将搬迁至Yemilab。 AMoRE-II 是一项无中微子双 β 衰变实验，其准备工作正在进行中，计划于 2024 年第二季度在 Yemilab 开始。此外，Yemilab 还包括一个体积约为 6,300 m 的圆柱形坑3，设计为多功能实验室，用于涉及中微子、暗物质和相关研究的下一代实验。本文重点概述了 Yemilab 的构建和结构。
