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…
Calibration Plan for the SBC 10-kg Liquid Argon Detector with 100 eV Target Threshold
E. Alfonso-Pita, D. Baxter, E. Behnke +32
The Scintillating Bubble Chamber (SBC) Collaboration is designing a new generation of low background, noble liquid bubble chamber experiments with sub-keV nuclear recoil threshold.…
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…
