Speaker

Hugh Lippincott (Fermilab)

Description

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) detector is a next generation dark matter detector that will use a 7 active tonne liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXe-TPC) to search for dark matter particles, among other rare phenomena. The LZ project was approved in 2014 to continue toward fabrication and is now in the construction phase. In this talk, I will give an update on the current status and schedule of the LZ construction project.
