Projected sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment to the decay of Xe

D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, A. Alqahtani +189

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will enable a neutrinoless double beta decay search in parallel to the main science goal of discovering dark matter particle interactions. We report…

Extending light WIMP searches to single scintillation photons in LUX

D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +122

We present a novel analysis technique for liquid xenon time projection chambers that allows for a lower threshold by relying on events with a prompt scintillation signal consisting…

Demonstration of the event identification capabilities of the NEXT-White detector

NEXT Collaboration, P. Ferrario, J. M. Benlloch-Rodríguez +88

In experiments searching for neutrinoless double-beta decay, the possibility of identifying the two emitted electrons is a powerful tool in rejecting background events and therefor…
