Enhancing the sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter experiment to low energy signals

D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, S. K. Alsum +184

Two-phase xenon detectors, such as that at the core of the forthcoming LZ dark matter experiment, use photomultiplier tubes to sense the primary (S1) and secondary (S2) scintillati…

Simulations of Events for the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Dark Matter Experiment

ZEPLIN Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof +194

The LUX-ZEPLIN dark matter search aims to achieve a sensitivity to the WIMP-nucleon spin-independent cross-section down to (1--2)\,pb at a WIMP mass of 40 GeV/

A Path to the Direct Detection of sub-GeV Dark Matter Using Calorimetric Readout of a Superfluid He Target

S. A. Hertel, A. Biekert, J. Lin +2

A promising technology concept for sub-GeV dark matter detection is described, in which low-temperature microcalorimeters serve as the sensors and superfluid He serves as the t…
