Fast and Flexible Analysis of Direct Dark Matter Search Data with Machine Learning

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +97

We present the results from combining machine learning with the profile likelihood fit procedure, using data from the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) dark matter experiment. This app…

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…

An Effective Field Theory Analysis of the First LUX Dark Matter Search

D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +94

The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) dark matter search was a 250-kg active mass dual-phase time projection chamber that operated by detecting light and ionization signals from partic…

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…

Directional dark matter detection sensitivity of a two-phase liquid argon detector

M. Cadeddu, M. Lissia, P. Agnes +38

We examine the sensitivity of a large scale two-phase liquid argon detector to the directionality of the dark matter signal. This study was performed under the assumption that, abo…

Is a co-rotating Dark Disk a threat to Dark Matter Directional Detection ?

J. Billard, Q. Riffard, F. Mayet +1

Recent N-Body simulations are in favor of the presence of a co-rotating Dark Disk that might contribute significantly (10%-50%) to the local Dark Matter density. Such substructure…
