Large Underground Xenon experiment

ID: large-underground-xenon-experiment

The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment was a significant scientific endeavor aimed at the direct detection of dark matter, specifically focusing on Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). The experiment was located at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, South Dakota, deep underground to shield it from cosmic rays and other sources of background radiation that could interfere with its measurements.
