Enhancing the sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter experiment to low energy signals
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, S. K. Alsum +184
Two-phase xenon detectors, such as that at the core of the forthcoming LZ dark matter experiment, use photomultiplier tubes to sense the primary (S1) and secondary (S2) scintillati…
Projected WIMP sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter experiment
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, S. K. Alsum +175
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a next generation dark matter direct detection experiment that will operate 4850 feet underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, So…
The Electronics and Data Acquisition System of the DarkSide Dark Matter Search
The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, T. Alexander +143
It is generally inferred from astronomical measurements that Dark Matter (DM) comprises approximately 27\% of the energy-density of the universe. If DM is a subatomic particle, a p…
Lowering the low-energy threshold of xenon detectors
P. Sorensen, J. Angle, E. Aprile +34
We show that the energy threshold for nuclear recoils in the XENON10 dark matter search data can be lowered to ~1 keV, by using only the ionization signal. In other words, we make…
Design and Performance of the XENON10 Dark Matter Experiment
E. Aprile, J. Angle, F. Arneodo +36
XENON10 is the first two-phase xenon time projection chamber (TPC) developed within the XENON dark matter search program. The TPC, with an active liquid xenon (LXe) mass of about 1…
