Search for dark matter particle interactions in an extended nuclear recoil energy window with the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment

D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, B. J. Almquist +214

We report on a search for dark matter particles interacting with xenon nuclei in an exposure of 2.84 tonne-years with the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment. An extended nuclear recoil ene…

Low-Energy Radon Backgrounds from Electrode Grids in Dual-Phase Xenon TPCs

D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +264

The dual-phase xenon time projection chamber (TPC) is a powerful technology to detect rare interactions such as scatters of dark matter particles on nuclei. In particular, the buil…

Results on the Spin-Dependent Scattering of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles on Nucleons from the Run 3 Data of the LUX Experiment

LUX Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, H. M. Araújo +99

We present the first experimental constraints on the spin-dependent WIMP-nucleon elastic cross sections from LUX data acquired in 2013. LUX is a dual-phase xenon time projection ch…

Snowmass CF1 Summary: WIMP Dark Matter Direct Detection

P. Cushman, C. Galbiati, D. N. McKinsey +46

As part of the Snowmass process, the Cosmic Frontier WIMP Direct Detection subgroup (CF1) has drawn on input from the Cosmic Frontier and the broader Particle Physics community to…
