Online Rn removal by cryogenic distillation in the XENON100 experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +119
We describe the purification of xenon from traces of the radioactive noble gas radon using a cryogenic distillation column. The distillation column is integrated into the gas purif…
Removing krypton from xenon by cryogenic distillation to the ppq level
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +119
The XENON1T experiment aims for the direct detection of dark matter in a cryostat filled with 3.3 tons of liquid xenon. In order to achieve the desired sensitivity, the background…
Results from a Calibration of XENON100 Using a Source of Dissolved Radon-220
The XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +118
A Rn-220 source is deployed on the XENON100 dark matter detector in order to address the challenges in calibration of tonne-scale liquid noble element detectors. We show that the P…
A versatile and light-weight slow control system for small-scale applications
Philipp Zappa, Lukas Bütikofer, Daniel Coderre +3
We present an open source slow control system for small and medium scale projects. Thanks to its modular and flexible design, where the various instruments are read and controlled…
Physics reach of the XENON1T dark matter experiment
The XENON collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +113
The XENON1T experiment is currently in the commissioning phase at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy. In this article we study the experiment's expected sensitivity to…
