What are the backgrounds for our event of interest LZ230616, and why can't they currently explain it? 🤔 A thread: 🧵 [Images from the TeVPA talk, available on our website lz.lbl.gov] #darkmatter #LZ230616

Our new results are out! We have observed a single nuclear recoil in our detector that we find difficult to explain with our background model. Could it be a hint of dark matter? It’s far too early to say, but it’s certainly intriguing! #darkmatter

😶‍🌫️ We’ve taken our first steps into the neutrino fog! LZ has just set world leading limits on low mass dark matter AND has observed neutrinos from the sun’s core. ☀️
