Projected sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment to the decay of Xe
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, A. Alqahtani +189
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will enable a neutrinoless double beta decay search in parallel to the main science goal of discovering dark matter particle interactions. We report…
Search for two neutrino double electron capture of Xe and Xe in the full exposure of the LUX detector
LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +96
Two-neutrino double electron capture is a process allowed in the Standard Model of Particle Physics. This rare decay has been observed in Kr, Ba and more recently in…
Measurement of the absolute reflectance of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) immersed in liquid xenon
F. Neves, A. Lindote, A. Morozov +5
The performance of a detector using liquid xenon (LXe) as a scintillator is strongly dependent on the collection efficiency for xenon scintillation light, which in turn is critical…
A Detailed Look at the First Results from the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) Dark Matter Experiment
M. Szydagis, D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araujo +77
LUX, the world's largest dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber, with a fiducial target mass of 118 kg and 10,091 kg-days of exposure thus far, is currently the most sensitive di…
Quenching Factor for Low Energy Nuclear Recoils in a Plastic Scintillator
L. Reichhart, D. Yu. Akimov, H. M. Araujo +34
Plastic scintillators are widely used in industry, medicine and scientific research, including nuclear and particle physics. Although one of their most common applications is in ne…
Performance of the veto detector incorporated into the ZEPLIN-III experiment
C. Ghag, D. Yu. Akimov, H. M. Araújo +36
The ZEPLIN-III experiment is operating in its second phase at the Boulby Underground Laboratory in search of dark matter WIMPs. The major upgrades to the instrument over its first…
