Scintillation yield from electronic and nuclear recoils in superfluid He

HeRALD Collaboration, A. Biekert, C. Chang +30

Superfluid He is a promising target material for direct detection of light ( 1 GeV) dark matter. Possible signal channels available for readout in this medium include prompt…

High sensitivity characterization of an ultra-high purity NaI(Tl) crystal scintillator with the SABRE proof-of-principle detector

F. Calaprice, S. Copello, I. Dafinei +23

We present new results on the radiopurity of a 3.4-kg NaI(Tl) crystal scintillator operated in the SABRE proof-of-principle detector setup. The amount of potassium contamination, d…

Zone refining of ultra-high purity sodium iodide for low-background detectors

Burkhant Suerfu, Frank Calaprice, Michael Souza

There has been a growing interest in ultra-high purity, low-background NaI(Tl) crystals for dark matter direct searches. Past research indicates that zone refining is an efficient…

Projected sensitivities of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment to new physics via low-energy electron recoils

The LZ Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +194

LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a dark matter detector expected to obtain world-leading sensitivity to weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) interacting via nuclear recoils with a ~7-ton…

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…
