We describe the design and assembly of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment, a direct detection search for cosmic WIMP dark matter particles. The centerpiece of the experiment is a large liquid xenon time projection chamber sensitive to low energy nuclear recoils. Rejection of backgrounds is enhanced by a Xe skin veto detector and by a liquid scintillator Outer Detector loaded with gadolinium for efficient neutron capture and tagging. LZ is located in the Davis Cavern at the 4850' level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota, USA. We describe the major subsystems of the experiment and its key design features and requirements.

    physics.ins-det 2025-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Flow-dependent tagging, built from paired radon-polonium decays, identifies 63% of 214Pb beta-decay backgrounds in LZ's fiducial volume at 9.0% exposure cost.

  3. Commissioning of the 2.6 m tall two-phase xenon time projection chamber of Xenoscope

    physics.ins-det 2024-11 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    Xenoscope's 2.6 m tall xenon TPC was commissioned and detected correlated light and charge signals from cosmic muons near the top of the detector.

  4. Searching for MeV-mass neutrinophilic Dark Matter with Large Scale Dark Matter Detectors

    hep-ph 2024-11 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Xenon-based dark matter detectors, especially DARWIN, could detect neutrinos from MeV-mass dark matter that annihilates to the third neutrino mass eigenstate, with projected sensitivity competitive with Super-Kamiokande.
