First measurement of the Head-Tail directional nuclear recoil signature at energies relevant to WIMP dark matter searches
S. Burgos, E. Daw, J. Forbes +19
We present first evidence for the so-called Head-Tail asymmetry signature of neutron-induced nuclear recoil tracks at energies down to 1.5 keV/amu using the 1m^3 DRIFT-IIc dark mat…
Neutron- and muon-induced background in underground physics experiments
V. A. Kudryavtsev, L. Pandola, V. Tomasello
Background induced by neutrons in deep underground laboratories is a critical issue for all experiments looking for rare events, such as dark matter interactions or neutrinoless 2-…
Limits on spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon cross-sections from the first ZEPLIN-II data
G. J. Alner et al.
The first underground data run of the ZEPLIN-II experiment has set a limit on the nuclear recoil rate in the two-phase xenon detector for direct dark matter searches. In this paper…
R & D for Future Zeplin
R. Bisset, M. J. Carson, H. Chagani +24
We propose a new concept for a very low background multi-ton liquid xenon Dark Matter experiment. The detector consists of two concentric spheres and a charge readout device in the…
The ZEPLIN-III dark matter detector: instrument design, manufacture and commissioning
D. Yu. Akimov, G. J. Alner, H. M. Araujo +56
We present details of the technical design and manufacture of the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment. ZEPLIN-III is a two-phase xenon detector which measures both the scintillation…
The ZEPLIN-III dark matter detector: performance study using an end-to-end simulation tool
H. M. Araujo, D. Yu. Akimov, G. J. Alner +53
We present results from a GEANT4-based Monte Carlo tool for end-to-end simulations of the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment. ZEPLIN-III is a two-phase detector which measures both…
