Parallel session talk Dark Matter DM: Dark Matter

Speaker

Giovanni Volta (University of Zurich)

Description

Understanding the nature of Dark Matter (DM) is one of the open issues in modern physics. In this context, XENON project aims to lead the effort on DM direct detection using ton-scale xenon dual-phase time projection chamber technology, operating in a low background environment. The status of XENONnT detector, running at the underground LNGS (L'Aquila, Italy) laboratories, will be shown. The preliminary results will be discussed as well as the foreseen goals.
