The DAMSA Experiment
Prithak Bhattarai, Andrew Brandt, Alan Bross +41
DAMSA (DArk Messenger Searches at an Accelerator) is a novel short-baseline accelerator/beam dump experiment aimed at probing short-lived physics processes, including searches for…
Precision measurement of positron decay modes of Xe-125 in the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +208
The radioisotope is a short-lived () activation product of the neutron calibrations performed in the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment. Subsequently, $^{12…
Pushing the Limits of Pulse Shape Discrimination in a Large Liquid Xenon Detector
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +213
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is a direct-detection dark matter experiment, optimized to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) through WIMP-nucleon interactions.…
Study of few-electron backgrounds in the LUX-ZEPLIN detector
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +204
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment aims to detect rare interactions between dark matter particles and xenon. Although the detector is designed to be the most sensitive to GeV/--Te…
Low-Energy Radon Backgrounds from Electrode Grids in Dual-Phase Xenon TPCs
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +264
The dual-phase xenon time projection chamber (TPC) is a powerful technology to detect rare interactions such as scatters of dark matter particles on nuclei. In particular, the buil…
DAMSA Experiment Conceptual Design White Paper
Prithak Bhattarai, Andrew Brandt, Alan Bross +41
DAMSA (DArk Messenger Searches at an Accelerator) is a novel short-baseline accelerator experiment aimed at probing short-lived physics processes, including searches for evidence o…
