Description
The XLZD observatory is a proposed next-generation experiment for dark matter detection and neutrino physics, featuring a 60-tonne liquid xenon (LXe) target within a dual-phase time projection chamber. To address the technological challenges required for such detector scale, a full-height vertical demonstrator, Xenoscope, was built at the University of Zurich. Xenoscope will demonstrate key capabilities, such as the electron transport characterization over a 2.6-meter drift, the high voltage delivery, or the measurement of LXe optical properties. This talk provides an overview of the Xenoscope facility, its recent results, and the upcoming measurement campaigns.
