Results of a Search for Sub-GeV Dark Matter Using 2013 LUX Data
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +95
The scattering of dark matter (DM) particles with sub-GeV masses off nuclei is difficult to detect using liquid xenon-based DM search instruments because the energy transfer during…
LUX Trigger Efficiency
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +94
The Large Underground Xenon experiment (LUX) searches for dark matter using a dual-phase xenon detector. LUX uses a custom-developed trigger system for event selection. In this pap…
DarkSide-50 532-day Dark Matter Search with Low-Radioactivity Argon
The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +172
The DarkSide-50 direct-detection dark matter experiment is a dual-phase argon time projection chamber operating at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso. This paper reports on the bl…
Constraints on Sub-GeV Dark Matter-Electron Scattering from the DarkSide-50 Experiment
The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +193
We present new constraints on sub-GeV dark matter particles scattering off electrons in argon based on an analysis of ionization signal data from the DarkSide-50 detector.
Low-Mass Dark Matter Search with the DarkSide-50 Experiment
The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +192
We present the results of a search for dark matter WIMPs in the mass range below 20 GeV/c^2 using a target of low-radioactivity argon. The data were obtained using the DarkSide-50…
Liquid xenon scintillation measurements and pulse shape discrimination in the LUX dark matter detector
The LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +90
Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are a leading candidate for dark matter and are expected to produce nuclear recoil (NR) events within liquid xenon time-projection cham…
Projected WIMP sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter experiment
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, S. K. Alsum +175
LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) is a next generation dark matter direct detection experiment that will operate 4850 feet underground at the Sanford Underground Research Facility (SURF) in Lead, So…
Electroluminescence pulse shape and electron diffusion in liquid argon measured in a dual-phase TPC
P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +163
We report the measurement of the longitudinal diffusion constant in liquid argon with the DarkSide-50 dual-phase time projection chamber. The measurement is performed at drift elec…
Measurement of the liquid argon energy response to nuclear and electronic recoils
P. Agnes, J. Dawson, S. De Cecco +26
A liquid argon time projection chamber, constructed for the Argon Response to Ionization and Scintillation (ARIS) experiment, has been exposed to the highly collimated and quasi-mo…
