The liquid-phase xenon purification system of the XENONnT dark matter experiment
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +178
The XENONnT dark matter experiment utilizes a dual-phase time projection chamber (TPC) housed in a cryostat filled with 8.5 t of ultra-pure liquid xenon. To achieve optimal sensiti…
First time-resolved measurement of infrared scintillation light in gaseous xenon
Mona Piotter, Dominick Cichon, Robert Hammann +3
Xenon is a widely used detector target material due to its excellent scintillation properties in the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum. The additional use of infrared (IR) scintillation li…
Scintillation decay-time constants for alpha particles and electrons in liquid xenon
Dominick Cichon, Guillaume Eurin, Florian Jörg +2
Understanding liquid xenon scintillation and ionization processes is of great interest to improve analysis methods in current and future detectors. In this paper, we investigate th…
Characterization of alpha and beta interactions in liquid xenon
Florian Jörg, Dominick Cichon, Guillaume Eurin +3
Liquid xenon based detectors have achieved great sensitivities in rare event searches. Precise knowledge of the scintillation and ionization responses of the medium is essential to…
Improved quality tests of R11410-21 photomultiplier tubes for the XENONnT experiment
V. C. Antochi, L. Baudis, J. Bollig +17
Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are often used in low-background particle physics experiments, which rely on an excellent response to single-photon signals and stable long-term operat…
Constraining the Spin-Dependent WIMP-Nucleon Cross Sections with XENON1T
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +126
We report the first experimental results on spin-dependent elastic weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) nucleon scattering from the XENON1T dark matter search experiment. The…
First results on the scalar WIMP-pion coupling, using the XENON1T experiment
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +128
We present first results on the scalar WIMP-pion coupling from 1 tyr of exposure with the XENON1T experiment. This interaction is generated when the WIMP couples to a virtu…
Dark Matter Search Results from a One TonneYear Exposure of XENON1T
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +116
We report on a search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) using 278.8 days of data collected with the XENON1T experiment at LNGS. XENON1T utilizes a liquid xenon time…
First Dark Matter Search Results from the XENON1T Experiment
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +122
We report the first dark matter search results from XENON1T, a 2000-kg-target-mass dual-phase (liquid-gas) xenon time projection chamber in operation at the Laboratori Nazion…
The next-generation liquid-scintillator neutrino observatory LENA
Michael Wurm, John F. Beacom, Leonid B. Bezrukov +74
We propose the liquid-scintillator detector LENA (Low Energy Neutrino Astronomy) as a next-generation neutrino observatory on the scale of 50 kt. The outstanding successes of the B…
