This project will exploit the science data from the LZ dark matter search experiment following commissioning at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in 2020. The student will perform key data analyses contributing to the primary search for WIMPs as well as other potential signatures arising from alternative thermal relic dark matter candidates accessible to LZ. The project will also investigate the adoption of novel quantum technologies as probes for ultra light dark matter candidates presently out of reach of underground rare event scattering experiments.

该项目将利用2020年桑福德地下研究设施投入使用后LZ暗物质搜索实验的科学数据。学生将执行有助于初步搜索WIMP的关键数据分析，以及LZ可访问的替代热遗迹暗物质候选产生的其他潜在特征。该项目还将研究采用新的量子技术作为探测器，探测目前无法进行地下稀有事件散射实验的超轻暗物质候选物质。
