Radon Mitigation for the SuperCDMS SNOLAB Dark Matter Experiment

J. Street, R. Bunker, E. H. Miller +3

A potential background for the SuperCDMS SNOLAB dark matter experiment is from radon daughters that have plated out onto detector surfaces. To reach desired backgrounds, understand…

Radon Daughter Plate-out onto Teflon

Eric S. Morrison, Eric H. Miller, Therese Frels +2

Radiopure materials for detector components in rare event searches may be contaminated after manufacturing with long-lived Pb produced by the decay of atmospheric radon. Ch…

Constraining Radon Backgrounds in LZ

E. H. Miller, J. Busenitz, T. K. Edberg +8

The LZ dark matter detector, like many other rare-event searches, will suffer from backgrounds due to the radioactive decay of radon daughters. In order to achieve its science goal…

Measurement of directional range components of nuclear recoil tracks in a fiducialised dark matter detector

J. B. R. Battat, E. J. Daw, A. C. Ezeribe +16

We present results from the first measurement of axial range components of fiducialized neutron induced nuclear recoil tracks using the DRIFT directional dark matter detector. Nucl…

Identification of Radiopure Titanium for the LZ Dark Matter Experiment and Future Rare Event Searches

D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, D. Yu. Akimov +202

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will search for dark matter particle interactions with a detector containing a total of 10 tonnes of liquid xenon within a double-vessel cryostat. Th…
