Position Reconstruction in LUX

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +91

The position reconstruction method used in the analysis of the complete exposure of the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment is presented. The algorithm is based on a…

Ultra-Low Energy Calibration of LUX Detector using Xe Electron Capture

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +91

We report an absolute calibration of the ionization yields($\textit{Q$_y$})$ and fluctuations for electronic recoil events in liquid xenon at discrete energies between 186 eV and 3…

3D Modeling of Electric Fields in the LUX Detector

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +91

This work details the development of a three-dimensional (3D) electric field model for the LUX detector. The detector took data during two periods of searching for weakly interacti…

Kr calibration of the 2013 LUX dark matter search

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +91

LUX was the first dark matter experiment to use a Kr calibration source. In this paper we describe the source preparation and injection. We also present several $^…

Identification of Radiopure Titanium for the LZ Dark Matter Experiment and Future Rare Event Searches

D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, D. Yu. Akimov +202

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will search for dark matter particle interactions with a detector containing a total of 10 tonnes of liquid xenon within a double-vessel cryostat. Th…
