Measurement of the Muon Flux at the Sanford Underground Research Facility with the LUX-ZEPLIN Dark Matter Detector
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +209
High-energy cosmic-ray muons reaching deep underground laboratories can cause events in detectors that mimic signals expected from dark matter particles, neutrinos, or rare decays.…
Searches for Light Dark Matter and Evidence of Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering of Solar Neutrinos with the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Experiment
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +217
We present searches for light dark matter (DM) with masses 3-9 GeV/ in the presence of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) from B solar neutrinos wit…
Search for New Physics via Low-Energy Electron Recoils with a 4.2 Tonne\times Year Exposure from the LZ Experiment
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +207
We report results from searches for new physics models through electron recoils using data collected by the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment during its first two science runs, with a tot…
The XLZD Design Book: Towards the Next-Generation Liquid Xenon Observatory for Dark Matter and Neutrino Physics
XLZD Collaboration, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +441
This report describes the experimental strategy and technologies for XLZD, the next-generation xenon observatory sensitive to dark matter and neutrino physics. In the baseline desi…
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…
Measurements and models of enhanced recombination following inner-shell vacancies in liquid xenon
J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +215
Electron-capture decays of Xe and Xe, and double-electron-capture decays of Xe, are backgrounds in searches for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs)…
