Search for Magnetic and Spin-Independent Inelastic Dark Matter with XENONnT

E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +173

We present a search for Magnetic and Spin-Independent inelastic Dark Matter using 2.1 tonne-years of data from the XENONnT experiment. We consider both single- and double-site even…

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…

Analytical model for the photomultiplier single photoelectron response including the electron back-scattering contribution

Emanuele Angelino, Veronica Beligotti, Lorenzo Bellagamba +12

Many models exist to describe the single photoelectron response of single photon counting photomultipliers. Generally to describe the spectral region between the fully amplified pr…

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…

WIMP Dark Matter Search using a 3.1 Tonne-Year Exposure of the XENONnT Experiment

E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +175

We report on a search for weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter (DM) via elastic DM-xenon-nucleus interactions in the XENONnT experiment. We combine datasets from…
