Large scale liquid xenon test platform PANCAKE for future dark matter detectors — •Julia Müller — University of Freiburg

The PANCAKE facility is a large-scale cryogenic platform with a diameter of 2.8m allowing to test detector components such as electrodes for future liquid xenon detectors e.g. DARWIN. As over the past decades these detectors continuously grew in size and sensitivity their technical realization becomes more and more challenging, with the electrodes among the most crucial components. These can be tested in PANCAKE in cryogenic conditions and on full scale. The PANCAKE facility was operated successfully with an entire of 300kg of xenon and preparations for an electrodes testing campaign are currently taken.
