The EXO-200 detector, part II: Auxiliary Systems
N. Ackerman, J. Albert, M. Auger +157
The EXO-200 experiment searched for neutrinoless double-beta decay of Xe with a single-phase liquid xenon detector. It used an active mass of 110 kg of 80.6%-enriched liqui…
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) radioactivity and cleanliness control programs
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, D. Yu. Akimov +387
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a second-generation direct dark matter experiment with spin-independent WIMP-nucleon scattering sensitivity above cm for a WIMP mass…
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Technical Design Report
B. J. Mount, S. Hans, R. Rosero +259
In this Technical Design Report (TDR) we describe the LZ detector to be built at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF). The LZ dark matter experiment is designed to achi…
Identification of Radiopure Titanium for the LZ Dark Matter Experiment and Future Rare Event Searches
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, D. Yu. Akimov +202
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will search for dark matter particle interactions with a detector containing a total of 10 tonnes of liquid xenon within a double-vessel cryostat. Th…
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Conceptual Design Report
The LZ Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof +192
The design and performance of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) detector is described as of March 2015 in this Conceptual Design Report. LZ is a second-generation dark-matter detector with the p…
The EXO-200 detector, part I: Detector design and construction
M. Auger, D. J. Auty, P. S. Barbeau +78
EXO-200 is an experiment designed to search for double beta decay of Xe with a single-phase, liquid xenon detector. It uses an active mass of 110 kg of xenon enriched to 80…
Xenon purity analysis for EXO-200 via mass spectrometry
A. Dobi, C. Hall, S. Slutsky +73
We describe purity measurements of the natural and enriched xenon stockpiles used by the EXO-200 double beta decay experiment based on a mass spectrometry technique. The sensitivit…
A magnetically-driven piston pump for ultra-clean applications
F. LePort, R. Neilson, P. S. Barbeau +77
A magnetically driven piston pump for xenon gas recirculation is presented. The pump is designed to satisfy extreme purity and containment requirements, as is appropriate for the r…
Systematic study of trace radioactive impurities in candidate construction materials for EXO-200
D. S. Leonard, P. Grinberg, P. Weber +54
The Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO) will search for double beta decays of 136Xe. We report the results of a systematic study of trace concentrations of radioactive impurities in a…
