The ZEPLIN-III Anti-Coincidence Veto Detector
D. Yu. Akimov, H. M. Araujo, E. J. Barnes +34
The design, optimisation and construction of an anti-coincidence veto detector to complement the ZEPLIN-III direct dark matter search instrument is described. One tonne of plastic…
Limits on inelastic dark matter from ZEPLIN-III
D. Yu. Akimov, H. M. Araujo, E. J. Barnes +43
We present limits on the WIMP-nucleon cross section for inelastic dark matter derived from the 2008 run of ZEPLIN-III. Cuts, notably on scintillation pulse shape and scintillation-…
Limits on the spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon cross-sections from the first science run of the ZEPLIN-III experiment
V. N. Lebedenko, H. M. Araujo, E. J. Barnes +36
We present new experimental constraints on the WIMP-nucleon spin-dependent elastic cross-sections using data from the first science run of ZEPLIN-III, a two-phase xenon experiment…
The NAIAD experiment for WIMP searches at Boulby mine and recent results
B. Ahmed, G. J. Alner, H. Araujo +32
The NAIAD experiment (NaI Advanced Detector) for WIMP dark matter searches at Boulby mine (UK) is described. The detector consists of an array of encapsulated and unencapsulated Na…
Study and suppression of anomalous fast events in inorganic scintillators for dark matter searches
V. A. Kudryavtsev, N. J. C. Spooner, P. K. Lightfoot +34
The status of dark matter searches with inorganic scintillator detectors at Boulby mine is reviewed and the results of tests with a CsI(Tl) crystal are presented. The objectives of…
Measurements of Scintillation Efficiency and Pulse-Shape for Low Energy Recoils in Liquid Xenon
D. Akimov, A. Bewick, D. Davidge +19
Results of observations of low energy nuclear and electron recoil events in liquid xenon scintillator detectors are given. The relative scintillation efficiency for nuclear recoils…
