Constraints on Effective Field Theory Couplings Using 311.2 days of LUX Data
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +94
We report here the results of an Effective Field Theory (EFT) WIMP search analysis using LUX data. We build upon previous LUX analyses by extending the search window to include nuc…
Extending light WIMP searches to single scintillation photons in LUX
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +122
We present a novel analysis technique for liquid xenon time projection chambers that allows for a lower threshold by relying on events with a prompt scintillation signal consisting…
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…
Search for annual and diurnal rate modulations in the LUX experiment
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +93
Various dark matter models predict annual and diurnal modulations of dark matter interaction rates in Earth-based experiments as a result of the Earth's motion in the halo. Observa…
Limits on spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon cross section obtained from the complete LUX exposure
LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +97
We present experimental constraints on the spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon elastic cross sections from the total 129.5 kg-year exposure acquired by the Large Underground Xenon experime…
Improved Limits on Scattering of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles from Reanalysis of 2013 LUX data
LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araújo +99
We present constraints on weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP)-nucleus scattering from the 2013 data of the Large Underground Xenon dark matter experiment, including $1.4\ti…
