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…

3D Modeling of Electric Fields in the LUX Detector

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +91

This work details the development of a three-dimensional (3D) electric field model for the LUX detector. The detector took data during two periods of searching for weakly interacti…

On the Evaluation of Silicon Photomultipliers for Use as Photosensors in Liquid Xenon Detectors

Benjamin Godfrey, Tyler Anderson, Earl Breedon +12

Silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) are potential solid-state alternatives to traditional photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) for single-photon detection. In this paper, we report on evaluat…
