Latest Results and Status of the LUX-ZEPLIN Dark Matter Experiment
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is a dark matter direct detectionexperiment located 4,850 feet underground at the Sanford UndergroundResearch Facility (SURF) in South Dakota. The detector is a dual-phaseTime Projection Chamber (TPC) that whose target consists of 7 tonnesliquid xenon target aimed at detecting dark matter interactions,primarily from the highly-motivated candidate - Weakly InteractingMassive Particles (WIMPs), as well as some other phenomena beyond thestandard model. LZ continues to constrain parameter-space for WIMP-likedark matter as it acquires more data towards its goal of 1,000 days oflive time. This talk will present LZ’s new results from the combined2022-2024 exposure and the status of the detector.
