PandaX: A deep underground dark matter search experiment in China using liquid xenon

摘要

The nature of dark matter is one of the most fundamental scientific unknowns. Particle physicists have spent decades searching for evidence of dark matter particles. The PandaX project is a staged xenon-based dark matter direct detection experiment located at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory. In this paper, we give an overview of the PandaX experiment, discuss its recent scientific results, and outline the plan for the future.
