Description
Understanding the properties of dark matter particle is a fundamental problem in particle physics and cosmology. The search of dark matter particle scattering off nuclei target using ultra-low background detector is one of the most promising technology to decipher the nature of dark matter. The XENON1T experiment, which uses dual-phase time projection chamber with 2-tonne ultra-pure liquid xenon deployed as target, has reported the most sensitive search for dark matter using data collected since Dec. 2016. This talk gives the analysis and results from this most sensitive dark matter search with XENON1T, together with an outlook of the future upgraded XENONnT experiment which will start commissioning in late 2019.
