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…

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…

Calibration, event reconstruction, data analysis and limits calculation for the LUX dark matter experiment

D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +95

The LUX experiment has performed searches for dark matter particles scattering elastically on xenon nuclei, leading to stringent upper limits on the nuclear scattering cross sectio…

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…
