variety of neutrino detectors, each with the aim of providing a better understanding
of neutrinos through Coherent Elastic Neutrino Nucleus Scattering (CEvNS),
making use of the high neutrino flux from the Spallation Neutron Source for their
measurements. One such detector, a 550kg heavy water Cherenkov detector,... -

Coherent elastic neutrino–nucleus scattering (CEvNS) of solar neutrinos is a fundamental Standard Model process and an irreducible background for next-generation dark matter searches, including weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), commonly referred to as the "neutrino fog". With its large exposure and ultra-low background, the XENONnT experiment has reached the sensitivity required to...

PandaX-4T is a multi-tonne liquid-xenon experiment searching for rare low-energy interactions, operating with a 3.7-tonne active target at the China Jinping Underground Laboratory (2400 m.w.e. overburden). In 2024, PandaX-4T reported the first indication of coherent elastic neutrino–nucleus scattering (CE𝜈NS) from solar B8 neutrinos using combined Run1 and Run2 data, with a significance of...

LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a dark matter experiment centred on a 7-tonne dual-phase xenon detector, operating nearly a mile underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility, in South Dakota, USA. The LZ Collaboration has recently completed the analysis of a 5.7 tonne-years exposure to search for light dark matter with masses of 3-9 GeV/c$^2$ in the presence of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus...

Low-energy calibration of keV-scale nuclear recoils near detector threshold is a shared and critical requirement across CE$\nu$NS experiments. In XENONnT, it underpins two key physics goals: the measurement of solar $^8$B neutrinos via CE$\nu$NS, and searches for light dark matter. In this talk, we will present the first Yttrium-Beryllium photoneutron-source calibration campaign in the XENONnT...
