Dark matter and neutrinos play pivotal roles in the formation and evolution of the universe. Understanding their fundamental properties poses a significant challenge in contemporary physics and astronomy. The PandaX experiment, located at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory, is designed to detect rare events such as dark matter particles, Majorana neutrino, and solar neutrinos using a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber. With two generations of detectors, namely PandaX-II and the upgraded PandaX-4T, equipped with half-ton and 4-ton xenon targets respectively, the experiment has made substantial advancements in constraining WIMP-nucleon interactions and 2ν/0ν double beta decay. This talk will offer an overview of the PandaX experiment, detailing its techniques, status and recent progress.
