Abstract

China Jinping underground laboratory (CJPL) is located in the Jinping Mountain, Sichuan Province, southwest China, with a rock overburden of about 2400m, and it is currently the deepest underground laboratory in the world, and will become one of the largest with the completion of its extension project (CJPL-II). Based on CJPL-II, the Deep Underground and ultra-low Radiation Background Facility for frontier physics experiments (DURF) was approved in November 2019 and started construction in December 2020. The scientific project at CJPL is mainly focused on dark matter detection, nuclear astrophysics and low background screening techniques. Currently, China Dark matter Experiments (CDEX) and Particle and Astrophysics Xenon Experiments (PandaX) are conducting dark matter searching at CJPL and more experiments are planed or proposed to stationed in CJPL-II in the future.
