Dark-matter And Neutrino Computation Explored (DANCE) Community Input to Snowmass

Amy Roberts, Christopher Tunnell, Belina von Krosigk +23

This paper summarizes the needs of the dark matter and neutrino communities as it relates to computation. The scope includes data acquisition, triggers, data management and process…

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…

Enhancing the sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter experiment to low energy signals

D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, S. K. Alsum +184

Two-phase xenon detectors, such as that at the core of the forthcoming LZ dark matter experiment, use photomultiplier tubes to sense the primary (S1) and secondary (S2) scintillati…

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…
