Investigation of background electron emission in the LUX detector

D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum, H. M. Araújo +93

Dual-phase xenon detectors, as currently used in direct detection dark matter experiments, have observed elevated rates of background electron events in the low energy region. Whil…

Search for two neutrino double electron capture of Xe and Xe in the full exposure of the LUX detector

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

Two-neutrino double electron capture is a process allowed in the Standard Model of Particle Physics. This rare decay has been observed in Kr, Ba and more recently in…

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…

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…

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…

Ultra-Low Energy Calibration of LUX Detector using Xe Electron Capture

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, S. Alsum +91

We report an absolute calibration of the ionization yields($\textit{Q$_y$})$ and fluctuations for electronic recoil events in liquid xenon at discrete energies between 186 eV and 3…
