Dark Matter - Parallel I
- Carmen Carmona-Benitez (Pennsylvania State University)
The PandaX-4T experiment located at China Jinping Underground Laboratory is a dual-phase xenon direct dark matter detection experiment, with 4-ton scale liquid xenon as target material in the sensitive volume. Recently, PandaX-4T has completed the detector construction and the subsequent commissioning run. In this talk, I will provide an overview on the performance of PandaX-4T detector and...
The DarkSide program already produced world-class results for
both the low mass ($M_{WIMP}<10GeV/c^2$) and high mass
($M_{WIMP}>100GeV/c^2$) direct detection search for dark matter
with its primary DarkSide-50 detector. Operating since late 2013, it is a
50-kg-active-mass dual-phase Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber
(TPC), filled with low radioactivity argon from an underground...
The 2nd generation direct detection dark matter experiment LZ will perform the most sensitive direct search for weakly-interacting massive particles (WIMPs). LZ is located at 4850 feet underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, South Dakota. LZ is employing a two-phase xenon detector with an active mass of 7 tonnes. WIMPs could interact in the cryogenic liquid...
The Scintillating Bubble Chamber (SBC) collaboration is developing a liquid argon bubble chamber for GeV scale dark matter searches, and CEvNS searches using reactor neutrinos. Combining scintillation readout with bubble nucleation can provide significant nuclear recoil discrimination. Depending on the bubble nucleation threshold nuclear recoils will cause both a bubble to be generated and...
MicroBooNE is an 85-tonne active mass liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC) at Fermilab. It has excellent calorimetric, spatial and energy resolution and is exposed to two neutrino beams, which make it a powerful detector not just for neutrino physics, but also for Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics. The experiment has competitive sensitivity to heavy neutral leptons possibly...
