The existence of the cosmic Dark Matter, which represents ~85% of the
mass of the Universe, has been well established through astronomical
observations. The identity of the Dark Matter, however, remains
unknown. Progresses in the direct detection of Dark Matter offer a
large window of potential discovery in the next few years. In this
talk I will describe the LUX Experiment, which uses 350 kg of liquid
Xenon as the active target material. The expected sensitivity of the
LUX experiment improves over the current limit by two orders of
magnitude. The detector is being prepared for installation in the
Sanford Underground Laboratory at Homestake, South Dakota. |
