Physik-Institut Group of Laura Baudis

New Analysis Coordinator for XENONnT

Christian Wittweg was appointed as analysis coordinator for the XENONnT dark matter search experiment.

He is joining a three-person team that organizes the data analysis within the collaboration of 170 scientists from 27 institutions in 12 countries. The XENONnT experiment is currently taking data at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. It succeeds XENON1T which set world leading limits on interactions of dark matter particles with xenon. XENONnT will improve on these results and the physics program will be be expanded to searches for rare nuclear physics processes and neutrino interactions. With Christian as analysis coordinator the group continues its strong involvement in the XENON project, which includes data analysis as well as experimental hardware.
