A Dark Matter Search with MALBEK
G. K. Giovanetti, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +84
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR is an array of natural and enriched high purity germanium detectors that will search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of 76-Ge and perform a search…
Background Model for the Majorana Demonstrator
C. Cuesta, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +84
The Majorana Collaboration is constructing a system containing 40 kg of HPGe detectors to demonstrate the feasibility and potential of a future tonne-scale experiment capable of pr…
Testing the Ge detectors for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
W. Xu, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +84
High purity germanium (HPGe) crystals will be used for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR, where they serve as both the source and the detector for neutrinoless double beta decay. It is cru…
Radiogenic and Muon-Induced Backgrounds in the LUX Dark Matter Detector
D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araujo, X. Bai +77
The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) dark matter experiment aims to detect rare low-energy interactions from Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). The radiogenic backgrounds i…
A Detailed Look at the First Results from the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) Dark Matter Experiment
M. Szydagis, D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araujo +77
LUX, the world's largest dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber, with a fiducial target mass of 118 kg and 10,091 kg-days of exposure thus far, is currently the most sensitive di…
