摘要：

The mystery of dark matter particles is a fundamental problem in particle physics and cosmology. In the past decades, several detector technologies has been developed for deciphering the nature of dark matter. In this talk, I will give a brief overview of the promising technologies. Among them, I will focus on the dual-phase xenon Time Projection Chamber which take on leadership role in the racing of hunting dark matter particles. The XENON1T experiment, which is the largest running liquid xenon detector for searching dark matter at Gran Sasso underground laboratory, sets the world leading limit on WIMP (Weakly Interacting Massive Particles) - nucleon scatter cross section based on this novel technology. The detector has been running in a stable condition for more than one year. The design and operation of the detector, as well as data analysis will be covered in this talk.
