Abstract

The XENON experiments search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) using dual-phase xenon time projection chambers. While the XENON100 experiment completed its science program, the next ton-scale experiment, XENON1T, is fully installed and moving towards science data-taking. The most recent results of the collaboration are presented: from XENON100 latest analysis on low mass WIMPs to XENON1T status and its projected sensitivity, that has been evaluated to reach a minimum cross section of $1.6\times10^{-47}$~cm$^2$ at a WIMP mass of 50~GeV$/c^2$ after 2~years exposure with 1~ton of fiducial volume.
