DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Mohamed Rameez (DHEP-TIFR)\, Rajdeep Chatterjee (DHE
 P-TIFR)\n\nAn unusual event in the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment has brought 
 renewed attention to one of physics’ most enduring questions: what is da
 rk matter? In this joint colloquium\, we will first introduce the theoreti
 cal motivation for dark matter and its possible constituents. We will expl
 ain how direct\, indirect and collider searches seek to uncover its identi
 ty\, and revisit earlier claims and their interpretations. We will then de
 scribe the LZ experiment and the recent result that has generated fresh in
 terest. The discussion will examine possible explanations for the event an
 d their implications for our understanding of dark matter. The colloquium 
 will conclude by placing the LZ result in the broader context of dark matt
 er searches and explore its implications for future work. The colloquium 
 will be followed by an extended discussion session\, with active participa
 tion from the audience.\n\nhttps://scitalks.tifr.res.in/event/9440/
