Low-energy calibration of XENON1T with an internal 37 Ar source
Aprile, E.; Abe, K.; Agostini, F.; Ahmed Maouloud, S.; Alfonsi, M.; Althueser, L.; Andrieu, B.; Angelino, E.; Angevaare, J. R.; Antochi, V. C.A low-energy electronic recoil calibration of XENON1T, a dual-phase xenon time projection chamber, with an internal 37Ar source was performed. This calibration source features a 35-day half-life and provides two monoenergetic lines at 2.82 keV and 0.27 keV. The photon yield and electron yield at 2.82 keVare measured to be (32.3±0.3) photons/keV and (40.6 ± 0.5) electrons/keV, respectively, in agreement with oth...
A next-generation liquid xenon observatory for dark matter and neutrino physics
Aalbers, J.; AbdusSalam, S. S.; Abe, K.; Aerne, V.; Agostini, F.; Ahmed Maouloud, S.; Akerib, D. S.; Akimov, D. Y.; Akshat, J.; Al Musalhi, A. K.The nature of dark matter and properties of neutrinos are among the most pressing issues in contemporary particle physics. The dual-phase xenon timeprojection chamber is the leading technology to cover the available parameter space for weakly interacting massive particles, while featuring extensive sensitivity to many alternative dark matter candidates. These detectors can also study neutrinos through neutrinol...
