Calibration, event reconstruction, data analysis and limits calculation for the LUX dark matter experiment
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +95
The LUX experiment has performed searches for dark matter particles scattering elastically on xenon nuclei, leading to stringent upper limits on the nuclear scattering cross sectio…
Demonstration of Single Barium Ion Sensitivity for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay using Single Molecule Fluorescence Imaging
A. D. McDonald, B. J. P. Jones, D. R. Nygren +71
A new method to tag the barium daughter in the double beta decay of Xe is reported. Using the technique of single molecule fluorescent imaging (SMFI), individual barium dic…
Search for sterile neutrinos in MINOS and MINOS+ using a two-detector fit
P. Adamson, I. Anghel, A. Aurisano +117
A search for mixing between active neutrinos and light sterile neutrinos has been performed by looking for muon neutrino disappearance in two detectors at baselines of 1.04 km and…
Helium-Xenon mixtures to improve topological signature in high pressure gas Xenon TPCs
R. Felkai, F. Monrabal, D. Gonzalez-Díaz +72
Within the framework of xenon-based double beta decay experiments, we propose the possibility to improve the background rejection of an electroluminescent Time Projection Chamber (…
Microscopic simulation of xenon-based optical TPCs in the presence of molecular additives
C. D. R. Azevedo, D. Gonzalez-Diaz, S. F. Biagi +67
We introduce a simulation framework for the transport of high and low energy electrons in xenon-based gaseous optical time projection chambers (OTPCs). The simulation relies on ele…
A study of the NaI(Tl) detector response to low energy nuclear recoils and a measurement of the quenching factor in NaI(Tl)
Tyana Stiegler, Clement Sofka, Robert C. Webb +1
We analyzed the response of NaI(Tl) to low energy nuclear recoils in the experiment that is reported on here. Such detectors have been used recently to search for evidence of dark…
