First Search for Lorentz and CPT Violation in Double Beta Decay with EXO-200

200 Collaboration, J. B. Albert, P. S. Barbeau +86

A search for Lorentz- and CPT-violating signals in the double beta decay spectrum of Xe has been performed using an exposure of 100 kgyr with the EXO-200 detector. N…

Cosmogenic Backgrounds to 0νββ in EXO-200

200 Collaboration, J. B. Albert, D. J. Auty +84

As neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments become more sensitive and intrinsic radioactivity in detector materials is reduced, previously minor contributions to the background m…

Search for decay of Xe to the 0 excited state of Ba with EXO-200

200 Collaboration, J. B. Albert, D. J. Auty +88

EXO-200 is a single phase liquid xenon detector designed to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay of Xe to the ground state of Ba. We report here on a search fo…

Search for Majorana neutrinos with the first two years of EXO-200 data

200 Collaboration, J. B. Albert, D. J. Auty +91

Many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics suggest that neutrinos should be Majorana-type fermions, but this assumption is difficult to confirm. Observation of neutr…

An improved measurement of the 2νββ half-life of Xe-136 with EXO-200

J. B. Albert, M. Auger, D. J. Auty +94

We report on an improved measurement of the 2νββ half-life of Xe-136 performed by EXO-200. The use of a large and homogeneous time projection chamber allows for the precise estimat…
