Flow-dependent tagging of Pb decays in the LZ dark matter detector

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +208

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is searching for dark matter interactions in a liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXe-TPC). This article demonstrates how control of the flow stat…

Low Energy Backgrounds and Excess Noise in a Two-Channel Low-Threshold Calorimeter

Robin Anthony-Petersen, Clarence L. Chang, Yen-Yung Chang +29

We describe observations of low energy excess (LEE) events, background events observed in all light dark matter direct detection calorimeters, and noise in a Transition Edge Sensor…
