Enhancing Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay Sensitivity of Liquid-Xenon Time Projection Chamber with Augmented Convolutional Neural Network

E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +173

Dual-phase time projection chamber (TPC) that employs a multi-ton-scale liquid xenon (LXe) target mass is a pioneering detector technology to search for dark matter. Beyond its adv…

Constraints on Solar Reflected Dark Matter from a combined analysis of XENON1T and XENONnT data

XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +174

We report on a search for sub-GeV dark matter upscattered via the solar reflection mechanism in the heavy mediator scenario. Under the Standard Halo Model, keV to MeV dark matter p…

Spectral Measurement of the Bi beta-decay to the Po Ground State with XENONnT

E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +170

We report the measurement of the Bi beta-decay spectrum to the ground state of Po using the XENONnT detector. This decay is classified as first-forbidden non-unique…
