Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is a primary immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent life-threatening infections and hyperinflammatory complications. It is caused by mutations in the reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase complex and the consequent loss of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Recombinant human interferon gamma (rIFN-γ) prophylaxis reduces the risk of se...

LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a second-generation direct dark matter experiment with spin-independent WIMPnucleon scattering sensitivity above 1.4 × 10−48 cm2 for a WIMP mass of 40 GeV/c2 and a 1000 days exposure. LZ achieves this sensitivity through a combination of a large 5.6 t fiducial volume, active inner and outer veto systems, and radio-pure construction using materials with inherently low radioactivity content.
