Description

XMASS is an experimental program at the Kamioka Observatory in Japan designed for low energy, low background dark matter searches and neutrino physics. The core technology is a self shielding single-phase liquid xenon detector optimized for maximum scintillation light collection. In this talk we describe its current implementation and discuss its general performance after its 2013 refurbishment.
