Measurement and simulation of the muon-induced neutron yield in lead
L. Reichhart, A. Lindote, D. Yu. Akimov +36
A measurement is presented of the neutron production rate in lead by high energy cosmic-ray muons at a depth of 2850 m water equivalent (w.e.) and a mean muon energy of 260 GeV. Th…
Position Reconstruction in a Dual Phase Xenon Scintillation Detector
V. N. Solovov, V. A. Belov, D. Yu. Akimov +33
We studied the application of statistical reconstruction algorithms, namely maximum likelihood and least squares methods, to the problem of event reconstruction in a dual phase liq…
Single electron emission in two-phase xenon with application to the detection of coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering
E. Santos, B. Edwards, V. Chepel +34
We present an experimental study of single electron emission in ZEPLIN-III, a two-phase xenon experiment built to search for dark matter WIMPs, and discuss applications enabled by…
Nuclear recoil scintillation and ionisation yields in liquid xenon from ZEPLIN-III data
M. Horn, V. A. Belov, D. Yu. Akimov +33
Scintillation and ionisation yields for nuclear recoils in liquid xenon above 10 keVnr (nuclear recoil energy) are deduced from data acquired using broadband Am-Be neutron sources.…
Radioactivity Backgrounds in ZEPLIN-III
H. M. Araujo, D. Yu. Akimov, E. J. Barnes +32
We examine electron and nuclear recoil backgrounds from radioactivity in the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment at Boulby. The rate of low-energy electron recoils in the liquid xeno…
Calibration of Photomultiplier Arrays
F. Neves, V. Chepel, D. Yu. Akimov +31
A method is described that allows calibration and assessment of the linearity of response of an array of photomultiplier tubes. The method does not require knowledge of the photomu…
Measurement of single electron emission in two-phase xenon
B. Edwards, H. M. Araujo, V. Chepel +25
We present the first measurements of the electroluminescence response to the emission of single electrons in a two-phase noble gas detector. Single ionization electrons generated i…
