The XENON Dark Matter Project: Latest Results and Future Prospects — •Constanze Hasterok — Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik, Heidelberg, Germany
Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) are a very popular explanation for the nature of dark matter. The XENON1T experiment aims for the direct detection of WIMP-nucleon interactions using a dual-phase time projection chamber (TPC) with a liquid xenon target of 3.5 tons. With the data acquired in the two science runs of a total of one tonne year exposure, the experiment could impose the most stringent upper limit on spin-independent WIMP-nucleon cross-sections with 4.1· 10−47 cm2 at a mass of 30 GeV/c2. After an overview on the XENON1T experiment, the talk will focus on the latest results of searches beyond the standard WIMP model. Finally, the detector upgrade XENONnT will be presented.
