The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment analyzed the largest dataset ever collected by a dark matter detector. The record-breaking results provide the strongest constraints yet on low-mass WIMPs, proposed dark matter particles.

In their spare time after work, researchers working on LUX ZEPLIN at SURF built a set of interactive video games that mimic aspects of the world-leading dark matter detector. The games were a smash hit at the celebration of Dark Matter Day in Lead.
Several hundred pounds of ultrapure copper recently made the journey from SURF, where it was manufactured, to another subterranean lab beneath the French Alps.
The National Science Foundation has awarded a $7 million EPSCoR RII E-RISE grant to launch Ge-STAR: Germanium-based Science and Technology Advancement Research, a transformative project involving universities across the state and research at SURF.
LUX ZEPLIN (LZ) is maintained by a talented team of scientists, engineers, technicians, and students whose tireless labor keeps the experiment running a mile underground.
