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…
Improved Measurements of the \b{eta}-Decay Response of Liquid Xenon with the LUX Detector
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +98
We report results from an extensive set of measurements of the \b{eta}-decay response in liquid xenon.These measurements are derived from high-statistics calibration data from inje…
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…
Search for annual and diurnal rate modulations in the LUX experiment
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +93
Various dark matter models predict annual and diurnal modulations of dark matter interaction rates in Earth-based experiments as a result of the Earth's motion in the halo. Observa…
LUX Trigger Efficiency
D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +94
The Large Underground Xenon experiment (LUX) searches for dark matter using a dual-phase xenon detector. LUX uses a custom-developed trigger system for event selection. In this pap…
Liquid xenon scintillation measurements and pulse shape discrimination in the LUX dark matter detector
The LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +90
Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) are a leading candidate for dark matter and are expected to produce nuclear recoil (NR) events within liquid xenon time-projection cham…
