Status of the LUX Dark Matter Search
S. Fiorucci, D. S. Akerib, S. Bedikian +44
The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) dark matter search experiment is currently being deployed at the Homestake Laboratory in South Dakota. We will highlight the main elements of desi…
A 83Krm Source for Use in Low-background Liquid Xenon Time Projection Chambers
L. W. Kastens, S. Bedikian, S. B. Cahn +2
We report the testing of a charcoal-based Kr-83m source for use in calibrating a low background two-phase liquid xenon detector. Kr-83m atoms produced through the decay of Rb-83 ar…
Calibration of liquid argon and neon detectors with
W. H. Lippincott, S. B. Cahn, D. Gastler +4
We report results from tests of Kr, as a calibration source in liquid argon and liquid neon. Kr atoms are produced in the decay of $^{83…
Constraints on inelastic dark matter from XENON10
J. Angle, E. Aprile, F. Arneodo +34
It has been suggested that dark matter particles which scatter inelastically from detector target nuclei could explain the apparent incompatibility of the DAMA modulation signal (i…
Scintillation efficiency and ionization yield of liquid xenon for mono-energetic nuclear recoils down to 4 keV
A. Manzur, A. Curioni, L. Kastens +3
Liquid Xenon (LXe) is an excellent material for experiments designed to detect dark matter in the form of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). A low energy detection thres…
Calibration of a Liquid Xenon Detector with Kr-83m
L. W. Kastens, S. B. Cahn, A. Manzur +1
We report the preparation of a Kr-83m source and its subsequent use in calibrating a liquid xenon detector. Kr-83m atoms were produced through the decay of Rb-83 atoms trapped in z…
