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…
Measurement of the cosmic muon flux at the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory
G. Fu, M. Mews, F. Scutti +35
We report the first measurement of the underground cosmic muon flux at the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory. The measurement uses eight EJ200 plastic scintillator panels, equ…
Measurement of the Muon Flux at the Sanford Underground Research Facility with the LUX-ZEPLIN Dark Matter Detector
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +209
High-energy cosmic-ray muons reaching deep underground laboratories can cause events in detectors that mimic signals expected from dark matter particles, neutrinos, or rare decays.…
Searches for Light Dark Matter and Evidence of Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering of Solar Neutrinos with the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Experiment
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +217
We present searches for light dark matter (DM) with masses 3-9 GeV/ in the presence of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) from B solar neutrinos wit…
