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…

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…

The XENONnT Dark Matter Experiment

XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +192

The multi-staged XENON program at INFN Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso aims to detect dark matter with two-phase liquid xenon time projection chambers of increasing size and se…

Radon Removal in XENONnT down to the Solar Neutrino Level

E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +169

The XENONnT experiment has achieved an exceptionally low Rn activity concentration within its inner 5.9tonne liquid xenon detector of (0.900.01stat.$\…

The neutron veto of the XENONnT experiment: Results with demineralized water

XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +167

Radiogenic neutrons emitted by detector materials are one of the most challenging backgrounds for the direct search of dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particl…
