摘要
LUX (Large Underground Xenon) was a dark matter experiment, which was housed at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in South Dakota until late 2016, and previously set world-leading limits on Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), axions and axion-like particles (ALPs). This proceeding presents an overview of the LUX experiment and discusses the most recent analysis efforts, which are probing various dark matter models and detection techniques. In particular, studies of signals from inelastic scattering processes and of single scintillation photon events have improved the sensitivity of the experiment to low mass WIMPs. Additionally, a model-independent search for modulations in the LUX electron recoil rate is presented, demonstrating the most sensitive annual modulation search to date.
