The XeBRA platform for liquid xenon time projection chamber development
Daniel Baur, Alexander Bismark, Adam Brown +13
XeBRA is a flexible cryogenic platform designed to perform research and development for liquid xenon detectors searching for rare events. Its extra-large outer cryostat makes it po…
Material radioassay and selection for the XENON1T dark matter experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +118
The XENON1T dark matter experiment aims to detect Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) through low-energy interactions with xenon atoms. To detect such a rare event necessi…
Online Rn removal by cryogenic distillation in the XENON100 experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +119
We describe the purification of xenon from traces of the radioactive noble gas radon using a cryogenic distillation column. The distillation column is integrated into the gas purif…
Removing krypton from xenon by cryogenic distillation to the ppq level
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +119
The XENON1T experiment aims for the direct detection of dark matter in a cryostat filled with 3.3 tons of liquid xenon. In order to achieve the desired sensitivity, the background…
Results from a Calibration of XENON100 Using a Source of Dissolved Radon-220
The XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +118
A Rn-220 source is deployed on the XENON100 dark matter detector in order to address the challenges in calibration of tonne-scale liquid noble element detectors. We show that the P…
A versatile and light-weight slow control system for small-scale applications
Philipp Zappa, Lukas Bütikofer, Daniel Coderre +3
We present an open source slow control system for small and medium scale projects. Thanks to its modular and flexible design, where the various instruments are read and controlled…
