LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a dark matter experiment at the 4850’ level of the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dakota. The experiment utilizes a two-phase time projection chamber, containing seven active tonnes of liquefied xenon, to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). Auxiliary veto detectors, including a liquid scintillator outer detector, improve the rejection of unwanted background events in the central region of the detector. LZ has been designed to explore much of the parameter space available for WIMP models and is the wordlś most sensitive DM experiment to date. In this talk, I will present the first results of LZ and the contributions of U-M to LZ before giving an outlook on future DM searches with LZ and beyond.
