DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Jingke Xu (Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory)\n
 Particle detectors with noble element targets have grown increasingly popu
 lar in rare event search physics experiments. The use of noble gases as th
 e interaction medium enables high purity\, large mass\, and multi-channel 
 signal detection in these experiments. When operated underground\, noble e
 lement detectors have achieved extremely low background levels\, and unpre
 cedented sensitivity to rare interactions such as those arising from neutr
 inos and (as yet hypothetical) dark matter particles. In this presentation
 \, I will review the benefits and challenges of rare event detection with 
 noble elements\, and discuss their applications in ongoing and planned exp
 eriments. In particular\, I will focus on the experiments in which the int
 eractions do not deposit significant energy\, and discuss the R&D required
  to further lower the achievable energy thresholds in these experiments.\n
