SUMMARY:DELight as a Testbed: Rethinking Computing, Data Formats, and Work
 flows for Future Dark Matter Science
DESCRIPTION:Belina von Krosigk (Heidelberg University)\n\nDELight is a cry
 ogenic detector experiment designed to probe low-mass dark matter interact
 ions. As a new experiment, it offers an opportunity to rethink data infras
 tructure and data release plans.  This talk presents DELight as a case stu
 dy in co-designing modern, open data formats alongside detector developmen
 t. We describe the challenges of moving away from custom data representati
 ons toward formats that are machine-learning-ready, human-readable, and in
 teroperable with community tools. By making these choices early in the exp
 eriment's lifecycle, DELight can serve as a model for how future dark matt
 er experiments might build FAIR principles into their data practices from 
 day one rather than retrofitting them later.  We discuss the practical tra
 deoffs encountered in this process — including format selection, metadata 
 capture, and integration with scalable computing workflows — and situate D
 ELight's approach within the broader vision of federated, reproducible dar
 k matter science described across this minisymposium.\n\nDomain: Physics, 
 Computational Methods and Applied Mathematics\n\nSession Chairs: Michela T
 aufer (University of Tennessee), Amy Roberts (University of Colorado Denve
 r), and Belina von Krosigk (Kirchhoff-Institute for Physics (KIP))\n\n
