Description
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment utilizes 7 tonnes of active liquid xenon to search for dark matter at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, South Dakota, USA. The core of the LZ detector is a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber, primarily designed for detecting Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). In this talk, I will discuss the novel features and performance of the LZ calibration systems, which played a crucial role in enabling LZ’s world-leading WIMP search results and will facilitate its broad scientific program in the future. The description of the LZ calibration systems presented in this talk will be a valuable reference for future calibration efforts in direct dark matter search experiments.
