Enhancing the sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter experiment to low energy signals
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, S. K. Alsum +184
Two-phase xenon detectors, such as that at the core of the forthcoming LZ dark matter experiment, use photomultiplier tubes to sense the primary (S1) and secondary (S2) scintillati…
Radiogenic and Muon-Induced Backgrounds in the LUX Dark Matter Detector
D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araujo, X. Bai +77
The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) dark matter experiment aims to detect rare low-energy interactions from Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). The radiogenic backgrounds i…
After LUX: The LZ Program
D. C. Malling, D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araujo +71
The LZ program consists of two stages of direct dark matter searches using liquid Xe detectors. The first stage will be a 1.5-3 tonne detector, while the last stage will be a 20 to…
ZE3RA: The ZEPLIN-III Reduction and Analysis Package
F. Neves, D. Yu. Akimov, H. M. Araújo +34
ZE3RA is the software package responsible for processing the raw data from the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment and its reduction into a set of parameters used in all subsequent a…
