Overlap-aware segmentation for topological reconstruction of obscured objects

J. Schueler, H. M. Araújo, S. N. Balashov +30

The separation of overlapping objects presents a significant challenge in scientific imaging. While deep learning segmentation-regression algorithms can predict pixel-wise intensit…

Simulations of Events for the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Dark Matter Experiment

ZEPLIN Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof +194

The LUX-ZEPLIN dark matter search aims to achieve a sensitivity to the WIMP-nucleon spin-independent cross-section down to (1--2)\,pb at a WIMP mass of 40 GeV/…

Projected sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment to the decay of Xe

D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, A. Alqahtani +189

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will enable a neutrinoless double beta decay search in parallel to the main science goal of discovering dark matter particle interactions. We report…
