Signal Yields of keV Electronic Recoils and Their Discrimination from Nuclear Recoils in Liquid Xenon
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +116
We report on the response of liquid xenon to low energy electronic recoils below 15 keV from beta decays of tritium at drift fields of 92 V/cm, 154 V/cm and 366 V/cm using the XENO…
The XENON1T Dark Matter Experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +142
The XENON1T experiment at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is the first WIMP dark matter detector operating with a liquid xenon target mass above the ton-scale. Out o…
Intrinsic backgrounds from Rn and Kr in the XENON100 experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +115
