Low-Energy Radon Backgrounds from Electrode Grids in Dual-Phase Xenon TPCs
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +264
The dual-phase xenon time projection chamber (TPC) is a powerful technology to detect rare interactions such as scatters of dark matter particles on nuclei. In particular, the buil…
Measurement of reactor antineutrino oscillation at SNO+
SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. Abreu +298
The SNO+ collaboration reports its second spectral analysis of reactor antineutrino oscillation using 286 tonne-years of new data. The measured energies of reactor antineutrino can…
First Dark Matter Search Results from the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Experiment
J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof +344
The LUX-ZEPLIN experiment is a dark matter detector centered on a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber operating at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in Lead, South Dak…
Cosmogenic production of Ar in the context of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment
J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +205
We estimate the amount of Ar produced in natural xenon via cosmic ray-induced spallation, an inevitable consequence of the transportation and storage of xenon on the Earth's…
Projected sensitivities of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment to new physics via low-energy electron recoils
The LZ Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +194
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a dark matter detector expected to obtain world-leading sensitivity to weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) interacting via nuclear recoils with a ~7-ton…
Improving sensitivity to low-mass dark matter in LUX using a novel electrode background mitigation technique
LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +95
This paper presents a novel technique for mitigating electrode backgrounds that limit the sensitivity of searches for low-mass dark matter (DM) using xenon time projection chambers…
First direct detection constraint on mirror dark matter kinetic mixing using LUX 2013 data
LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +97
We present the results of a direct detection search for mirror dark matter interactions, using data collected from the Large Underground Xenon experiment during 2013, with an expos…
Search for invisible modes of nucleon decay in water with the SNO+ detector
SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. Anderson +195
This paper reports results from a search for nucleon decay through 'invisible' modes, where no visible energy is directly deposited during the decay itself, during the initial wate…
