Description
The ZEPLIN-III direct dark matter experiment uses a 3D position-sensitive two-phase xenon time projection chamber. It is located in a deep underground laboratory at Boulby in North Yorkshire (UK) and searches for weakly interacting massive particles (WIPMs). Since June 2010 ZEPLIN-III is collecting the data in the second science run. The talk will give an overview over the detector performance and will describe in details the energy and position reconstruction.
