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…
Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber: Recent R&D Results
J. B. R. Battat, S. Ahlen, M. Chernicoff +14
The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber collaboration recently reported a dark matter limit obtained with a 10 liter time projection chamber filled with CF4 gas. The 10 liter detec…
Background Rejection in the DMTPC Dark Matter Search Using Charge Signals
J. P. Lopez, S. Ahlen, J. Battat +25
The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber (DMTPC) collaboration is developing low-pressure gas TPC detectors for measuring WIMP-nucleon interactions. Optical readout with CCD cameras…
DMTPC: Dark matter detection with directional sensitivity
J. B. R. Battat, S. Ahlen, T. Caldwell +21
The Dark Matter Time Projection Chamber (DMTPC) experiment uses CF_4 gas at low pressure (0.1 atm) to search for the directional signature of Galactic WIMP dark matter. We describe…
The DMTPC project
G. Sciolla, J. Battat, T. Caldwell +17
The DMTPC detector is a low-pressure CF4 TPC with optical readout for directional detection of Dark Matter. The combination of the energy and directional tracking information allow…
