Constraints on Solar Reflected Dark Matter from a combined analysis of XENON1T and XENONnT data
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +174
We report on a search for sub-GeV dark matter upscattered via the solar reflection mechanism in the heavy mediator scenario. Under the Standard Halo Model, keV to MeV dark matter p…
Challenging Spontaneous Quantum Collapse with XENONnT
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +174
We report on the search for X-ray radiation as predicted from dynamical quantum collapse with low-energy electronic recoil data in the energy range of 1-140 keV from the first scie…
WIMP Dark Matter Search using a 3.1 Tonne-Year Exposure of the XENONnT Experiment
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +175
We report on a search for weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter (DM) via elastic DM-xenon-nucleus interactions in the XENONnT experiment. We combine datasets from…
The neutron veto of the XENONnT experiment: Results with demineralized water
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +167
Radiogenic neutrons emitted by detector materials are one of the most challenging backgrounds for the direct search of dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particl…
Low-Energy Nuclear Recoil Calibration of XENONnT with a YBe Photoneutron Source
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +169
Characterizing low-energy, keV-range nuclear recoils near the detector threshold is one of the major challenges for large direct dark matter detectors. To that end, we have success…
Search for Light Dark Matter in Low-Energy Ionization Signals from XENONnT
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +165
We report on a blinded search for dark matter with single- and few-electron signals in the first science run of XENONnT relying on a novel detector response framework that is physi…
