Description

PandaX is a direct detection dark matter and neutrino experiment located at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory (CJPL). It utilizes liquid xenon technology to search for dark matter particles and study neutrino physics. Neutron- and gamma-induced backgrounds can be mitigated using an external veto detector. In this presentation, I will introduce the performance of a water Cherenkov veto detector in the current PandaX-4T stage and the development efforts for a novel cold-liquid scintillator veto technology for the next-generation liquid xenon experiment.
