Brief description Cryogenic Experimental Laboratory for Low-background Australian Research. This project aims to build an open-access cryogenic facility in the only deep-underground physics laboratory in the southern hemisphere. This facility, called the Cryogenic Experimental Laboratory for Low-background Australian Research (CELLAR), will provide extreme shielding from sources of noise, enabling ultra-precise experiments for fundamental science and emerging applications. The expected outcomes include a deeper understanding of astrophysics, alongside technological advances in emerging quantum technologies. CELLAR’s unique capabilities will attract strong international collaborations with multidisciplinary teams, educating the next generation of scientists and advancing the growth of Australian high-technology industries.
