Scientific paper

The XENON project searches for direct interactions of non-baryonic Dark Matter with a laboratory-scale detector. The XENON100 detector uses 64kg of pure liquid xenon as a target for Dark Matter interactions. The target volume is instrumented as a liquid/gas time-projection chamber with two arrays of photomultipliers. This allows to reconstruct the vertex of each particle interaction with millimeter resolution in all three dimensions. Additional information about the interacting particle as well as its energy are extracted. This allows for an excellent discrimination of dominant background from the expected Dark Matter signal. Major results from the recent analysis of data from this detector will be be presented.
