Description

The XENONnT experiment, located at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS), is a dark matter experiment using a dual-phase time projection chamber with 8.5 tonnes of xenon. Solar neutrinos, dominated by the proton-proton (pp) neutrinos, can scatter elastically with electrons and produce electronic recoils (ER) detectable to XENONnT down to the keV scale. The ER background in XENONnT has been suppressed to an extremely low level by reducing the radioactive Rn-222 and Kr-85 backgrounds. In this talk, I will present the progress towards the first measurement of solar pp neutrinos with XENONnT.
