Description

XMASS-I, the first phase of the XMASS project, is dedicated to a direct dark matter search using nearly 1 tons of liquid xenon as target material. We have restarted the data taking in November, 2013 after the refurbishment of the detector in order to reduce the background significantly and been continuously taking data since then. We have recently submitted the results of annual modulation search with 359 live days x 832 kg of data accumulated. In this talk, the latest physics results and the future plans of the XMASS project will be presented.
