Low-energy nuclear recoil calibration of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment with a photoneutron source

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +206

The LZ experiment is a liquid xenon time-projection chamber (TPC) searching for evidence of particle dark matter interactions. In the simplest assumption of elastic scattering, man…

Flow-dependent tagging of Pb decays in the LZ dark matter detector

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +205

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is searching for dark matter interactions in a liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXe-TPC). This article demonstrates how control of the flow stat…

Probing the Scalar WIMP-Pion Coupling with the first LUX-ZEPLIN data

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +200

Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) may interact with a virtual pion that is exchanged between nucleons. This interaction channel is important to consider in models where…
