The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Experiment
The LZ Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof +379
We describe the design and assembly of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment, a direct detection search for cosmic WIMP dark matter particles. The centerpiece of the experiment is a large liqu…
Measurement of the Gamma Ray Background in the Davis Cavern at the Sanford Underground Research Facility
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, S. K. Alsum +164
Deep underground environments are ideal for low background searches due to the attenuation of cosmic rays by passage through the earth. However, they are affected by backgrounds fr…
Electron Drift and Longitudinal Diffusion in High Pressure Xenon-Helium Gas Mixtures
A. D. McDonald, K. Woodruff, B. Al Atoum +83
We report new measurements of the drift velocity and longitudinal diffusion coefficients of electrons in pure xenon gas and in xenon-helium gas mixtures at 1-9 bar and electric fie…
