One mile beneath a mountain in Italy, scientists at the Gran Sasso National Laboratory fill a particle detector with liquid xenon, hoping to observe evidence of dark matter. The idea is that ...

Teresa Marrodán Undagoitia has been appointed as professor by special appointment in Novel Detection and Analysis Techniques ...

A dark matter detector called XENON is located in the Italian Gran Sasso National Laboratory, deep beneath the tallest mountain in the Apennines. There is also the dark matter detector LZ ...

For decades scientists have been building detectors deep underground to search for dark matter. Now one of these experiments, the XENON1T detector, has found an unexpected signal in their data.

The experiment will use seven tonnes of liquid xenon to search for scintillation light signals that are generated in collisions of dark matter particles with xenon nuclei. LZ will start taking data in ...

My research is based on the direct search for dark matter by using liquid-xenon based detectors. I am a member of the LZ collaboration, which operates an experiment in the Sanford Underground Research ...
