Description
Dark matter is one of the most critical topics in modern physics, and the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment has recently demonstrated world-leading capability in probing the identity of this substance. Operating since mid-2021 at Sanford Underground Research Facility, the detector is centered on a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber, the foremost technology for detecting heavy dark-matter candidates such as the Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). This presentation will overview the first science operations of the LZ detector and the corresponding WIMP-search results. It will also discuss a next-generation xenon-based experiment that will be a versatile observatory for dark matter and other rare events of the most critical importance.
