Projected sensitivity of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment to the decay of Xe

D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, A. Alqahtani +189

The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will enable a neutrinoless double beta decay search in parallel to the main science goal of discovering dark matter particle interactions. We report…

Improved Modeling of Electronic Recoils in Liquid Xenon Using LUX Calibration Data

The LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +96

We report here methods and techniques for creating and improving a model that reproduces the scintillation and ionization response of a dual-phase liquid and gaseous xenon time-pro…

Measurements of Angle-Resolved Reflectivity of PTFE in Liquid Xenon with IBEX

S. Kravitz, R. J. Smith, L. Hagaman +6

Liquid xenon particle detectors rely on excellent light collection efficiency for their performance. This depends on the high reflectivity of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) at the…

Direct comparison of high voltage breakdown measurements in liquid argon and liquid xenon

L. Tvrznikova, E. P. Bernard, S. Kravitz +6

As noble liquid time projection chambers grow in size their high voltage requirements increase, and detailed, reproducible studies of dielectric breakdown and the onset of electrol…

First direct detection constraint on mirror dark matter kinetic mixing using LUX 2013 data

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

We present the results of a direct detection search for mirror dark matter interactions, using data collected from the Large Underground Xenon experiment during 2013, with an expos…

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…
