The XENON1T Dark Matter Experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +142
The XENON1T experiment at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is the first WIMP dark matter detector operating with a liquid xenon target mass above the ton-scale. Out o…
Intrinsic backgrounds from Rn and Kr in the XENON100 experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +115
In this paper, we describe the XENON100 data analyses used to assess the target-intrinsic background sources radon (Rn), thoron (Rn) and krypton (Kr). We det…
Lowering the radioactivity of the photomultiplier tubes for the XENON1T dark matter experiment
E. Aprile, F. Agostini, M. Alfonsi +95
The low-background, VUV-sensitive 3-inch diameter photomultiplier tube R11410 has been developed by Hamamatsu for dark matter direct detection experiments using liquid xenon as the…
Conceptual design and simulation of a water Cherenkov muon veto for the XENON1T experiment
E. Aprile, F. Agostini, M. Alfonsi +88
XENON is a dark matter direct detection project, consisting of a time projection chamber (TPC) filled with liquid xenon as detection medium. The construction of the next generation…
Response of the XENON100 Dark Matter Detector to Nuclear Recoils
The XENON100 Collaboration, E. Aprile, M. Alfonsi +80
Results from the nuclear recoil calibration of the XENON100 dark matter detector installed underground at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS), Italy are presented. Data…
