New Results on Solar Neutrino and Light Dark Matter Searches with the LUX-ZEPLIN Experiment
ORAL · Invited
Abstract
Ann Wang, SLAC, for the LZ Collaboration
I will report on new results from the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment, which uses 7 active tonnes of liquid xenon to look for evidence of dark matter interactions. I will describe the current status of the experiment, as well as the latest analysis using 5.7 tonne-years of exposure to search for light dark matter and Boron-8 solar neutrino interactions. This analysis demonstrates the first evidence (> 3σ) of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering from a cosmic origin and sets world-leading constraints on dark matter-nucleon scattering cross-sections with masses above 5 GeV/c2.
