DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Ewan Fraser (University of Liverpool)\n\nLZ has rele
 ased its latest result searching an extended nuclear recoil energy window 
 up to 270 keV with an exposure of 2.84 tonne-years. At higher nuclear reco
 il energies\, LZ is sensitive to more complex models of WIMP-nucleon inter
 actions including momentum transfer dependent couplings and inelastic dark
  matter scatters. One event was observed with characteristics consistent w
 ith a nuclear recoil of 248 ± 23 (stat) ± 23 (sys) keV in a region where
  the known background expectation is low. LZ reports tension with a backgr
 ound-only hypothesis at local and global significances of 3.4σ and 2.6σ 
 respectively. In this talk\, I will outline the effective field theories u
 sed to test the high energy nuclear recoil Dark Matter hypothesis and will
  discuss the methods of analysis\, calibration and background modelling.Mi
