LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Conceptual Design Report
The LZ Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof +192
The design and performance of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) detector is described as of March 2015 in this Conceptual Design Report. LZ is a second-generation dark-matter detector with the p…
WIMP-Search Results from the Second CDMSlite Run
SuperCDMS Collaboration, R. Agnese, A. J. Anderson +87
The CDMS low ionization threshold experiment (CDMSlite) uses cryogenic germanium detectors operated at a relatively high bias voltage to amplify the phonon signal in the search for…
Construction and Measurements of an Improved Vacuum-Swing-Adsorption Radon-Mitigation System
J. Street, R. Bunker, C. Dunagan +5
In order to reduce backgrounds from radon-daughter plate-out onto detector surfaces, an ultra-low-radon cleanroom is being commissioned at the South Dakota School of Mines and Tech…
Improved WIMP-search reach of the CDMS II germanium data
R. Agnese, A. J. Anderson, M. Asai +86
CDMS II data from the 5-tower runs at the Soudan Underground Laboratory were reprocessed with an improved charge-pulse fitting algorithm. Two new analysis techniques to reject surf…
Dark matter effective field theory scattering in direct detection experiments
K. Schneck, B. Cabrera, D. G. Cerdeno +84
We examine the consequences of the effective field theory (EFT) of dark matter-nucleon scattering for current and proposed direct detection experiments. Exclusion limits on EFT cou…
