Model-independent searches of new physics in DARWIN with a semi-supervised deep learning pipeline

J. Aalbers, K. Abe, M. Adrover +231

We present a novel deep learning pipeline to perform a model-independent, likelihood-free search for anomalous (i.e., non-background) events in the proposed next generation multi-t…

Low-Energy Nuclear Recoil Calibration of XENONnT with a YBe Photoneutron Source

XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +169

Characterizing low-energy, keV-range nuclear recoils near the detector threshold is one of the major challenges for large direct dark matter detectors. To that end, we have success…

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…

XENONnT WIMP Search: Signal & Background Modeling and Statistical Inference

XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +161

The XENONnT experiment searches for weakly-interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter scattering off a xenon nucleus. In particular, XENONnT uses a dual-phase time projection…

Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Sensitivity of the XLZD Rare Event Observatory

XLZD Collaboration, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +441

The XLZD collaboration is developing a two-phase xenon time projection chamber with an active mass of 60 to 80 t capable of probing the remaining WIMP-nucleon interaction parameter…
