Indication for the disappearance of reactor electron antineutrinos in the Double Chooz experiment
Y. Abe, C. Aberle, T. Akiri +182
The Double Chooz Experiment presents an indication of reactor electron antineutrino disappearance consistent with neutrino oscillations. A ratio of 0.944 0.016 (stat) 0…
Radio-assay of Titanium samples for the LUX Experiment
D. S. Akerib, X. Bai, S. Bedikian +63
We report on the screening of samples of titanium metal for their radio-purity. The screening process described in this work led to the selection of materials used in the construct…
LUXSim: A Component-Centric Approach to Low-Background Simulations
D. S. Akerib, X. Bai, S. Bedikian +60
Geant4 has been used throughout the nuclear and high-energy physics community to simulate energy depositions in various detectors and materials. These simulations have mostly been…
After LUX: The LZ Program
D. C. Malling, D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araujo +71
The LZ program consists of two stages of direct dark matter searches using liquid Xe detectors. The first stage will be a 1.5-3 tonne detector, while the last stage will be a 20 to…
Data Acquisition and Readout System for the LUX Dark Matter Experiment
D. S. Akerib, X. Bai, S. Bedikian +60
LUX is a two-phase (liquid/gas) xenon time projection chamber designed to detect nuclear recoils from interactions with dark matter particles. Signals from the LUX detector are pro…
