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…
Geant4-IcyMoons: Simulating Electron Interaction Physics in Irradiated Astrophysical Ices
Gideon Yoffe, Jacques Pienaar, Ioanna Kyriakou +4
Energetic particles continuously process water ice across astrophysical and planetary environments, from interstellar clouds and comets to icy planetary surfaces. Interpreting the…
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…
Challenging Spontaneous Quantum Collapse with XENONnT
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +174
We report on the search for X-ray radiation as predicted from dynamical quantum collapse with low-energy electronic recoil data in the energy range of 1-140 keV from the first scie…
Light Dark Matter Search with 7.8 Tonne-Year of Ionization-Only Data in XENONnT
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +174
We report on a blinded search for dark matter (DM) using ionization-only (S2-only) signals in XENONnT with a total exposure of over 579 days…
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…
