Abstract: | The XMASS project utilizes ultrapure liquid xenon and aims to detect pp and 7Be solar neutrinos by means of ν
e
e scattering. It requires low background and a low threshold, which will also enable us to search for dark matter in the Galactic
halo. By using a prototype detector, we have confirmed its feasibility to realize low background and low threshold. We have
estimated the sensitivity of an 800-kg liquid-xenon detector for a dark matter search experiment based on the experimental
results.
