The Project 8 Neutrino Mass Experiment

Project 8 Collaboration, A. Ashtari Esfahani, S. Böser +45

Measurements of the spectrum of tritium give the most precise direct limits on neutrino mass. Project 8 will investigate neutrino mass using Cyclotron Radiation Emission Spec…

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…

Bayesian Analysis of a Future Beta Decay Experiment's Sensitivity to Neutrino Mass Scale and Ordering

A. Ashtari Esfahani, M. Betancourt, Z. Bogorad +43

Bayesian modeling techniques enable sensitivity analyses that incorporate detailed expectations regarding future experiments. A model-based approach also allows one to evaluate inf…

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…

Investigation of background electron emission in the LUX detector

D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +93

Dual-phase xenon detectors, as currently used in direct detection dark matter experiments, have observed elevated rates of background electron events in the low energy region. Whil…

Discrimination of electronic recoils from nuclear recoils in two-phase xenon time projection chambers

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +94

We present a comprehensive analysis of electronic recoil vs. nuclear recoil discrimination in liquid/gas xenon time projection chambers, using calibration data from the 2013 and 20…
