Study of few-electron backgrounds in the LUX-ZEPLIN detector

D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +204

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment aims to detect rare interactions between dark matter particles and xenon. Although the detector is designed to be the most sensitive to GeV/--Te…

Low-energy nuclear recoil calibration of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment with a photoneutron source

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +206

The LZ experiment is a liquid xenon time-projection chamber (TPC) searching for evidence of particle dark matter interactions. In the simplest assumption of elastic scattering, man…

Flow-dependent tagging of Pb decays in the LZ dark matter detector

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +208

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is searching for dark matter interactions in a liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXe-TPC). This article demonstrates how control of the flow stat…

Dark Matter Search Results from 4.2 Tonne-Years of Exposure of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Experiment

J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +215

We report results of a search for nuclear recoils induced by weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter using the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) two-phase xenon time projection chambe…
