Search for Magnetic and Spin-Independent Inelastic Dark Matter with XENONnT

E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +173

We present a search for Magnetic and Spin-Independent inelastic Dark Matter using 2.1 tonne-years of data from the XENONnT experiment. We consider both single- and double-site even…

Characterization of spurious-electron signals in the double-phase argon TPC of the DarkSide-50 experiment

50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque +144

Spurious-electron signals in dual-phase noble liquid time projection chambers have been observed in both xenon and argon Time Projection Chambers (TPCs). This paper presents the fi…
