An improved measurement of the 2νββ half-life of Xe-136 with EXO-200
J. B. Albert, M. Auger, D. J. Auty +94
We report on an improved measurement of the 2νββ half-life of Xe-136 performed by EXO-200. The use of a large and homogeneous time projection chamber allows for the precise estimat…
Ba-ion extraction from a high pressure Xe gas for double-beta decay studies with EXO
T. Brunner, D. Fudenberg, A. Sabourov +3
An experimental setup is being developed to extract Ba ions from a high-pressure Xe gas environment. It aims to transport Ba ions from 10 bar Xe to vacuum conditions. The setup uti…
Search for Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay in Xe with EXO-200
M. Auger, D. J. Auty, P. S. Barbeau +75
We report on a search for neutrinoless double-beta decay of Xe with EXO-200. No signal is observed for an exposure of 32.5 kg-yr, with a background of ~1.5 x 10^{-3} /(kg y…
The EXO-200 detector, part I: Detector design and construction
M. Auger, D. J. Auty, P. S. Barbeau +78
EXO-200 is an experiment designed to search for double beta decay of Xe with a single-phase, liquid xenon detector. It uses an active mass of 110 kg of xenon enriched to 80…
Xenon purity analysis for EXO-200 via mass spectrometry
A. Dobi, C. Hall, S. Slutsky +73
We describe purity measurements of the natural and enriched xenon stockpiles used by the EXO-200 double beta decay experiment based on a mass spectrometry technique. The sensitivit…
Observation of Two-Neutrino Double-Beta Decay in Xe-136 with EXO-200
N. Ackerman, B. Aharmim, M. Auger +100
We report the observation of two-neutrino double-beta decay in Xe-136 with T_1/2 = 2.11 +- 0.04 (stat.) +- 0.21 (sys.) x 10^21 yr. This second order process, predicted by the Stand…
