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…
Measurement of the ion fraction and mobility of Po produced in Rn decays in liquid argon
P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +163
We report measurements of the charged daughter fraction of Po as a result of the Rn alpha decay, and the mobility of Po ions, using radon-polonium coinc…
Cathode signal in a TPC directional detector: implementation and validation measuring the drift velocity
C. Couturier, Q. Riffard, N. Sauzet +3
Low-pressure gaseous TPCs are well suited detectors to correlate the directions of nuclear recoils to the galactic Dark Matter (DM) halo. Indeed, in addition to providing a measure…
Directional detection of Dark Matter with the MIcro-tpc MAtrix of Chambers
C. Couturier, O. Guillaudin, F. Naraghi +10
Particles weakly interacting with ordinary matter, with an associated mass of the order of an atomic nucleus (WIMPs), are plausible candidates for Dark Matter. The direct detection…
MIMAC low energy electron-recoil discrimination measured with fast neutrons
Q. Riffard, D. Santos, O. Guillaudin +13
MIMAC (MIcro-TPC MAtrix of Chambers) is a directional WIMP Dark Matter detector project. Direct dark matter experiments need a high level of electron/recoil discrimination to searc…
Measurement of the electron drift velocity for directional dark matter detectors
F. Mayet, J. Billard, G. Bosson +9
Three-dimensional track reconstruction is a key issue for directional Dark Matter detection. It requires a precise knowledge of the electron drift velocity. Magboltz simulations ar…
In situ measurement of the electron drift velocity for upcoming directional Dark Matter detectors
J. Billard, F. Mayet, G. Bosson +9
Three-dimensional track reconstruction is a key issue for directional Dark Matter detection and it requires a precise knowledge of the electron drift velocity. Magboltz simulations…
