Solar neutrino detection sensitivity in DARWIN via electron scattering

We detail the sensitivity of the proposed liquid xenon DARWIN observatory to solar neutrinos via elastic electron scattering. We find that DARWIN will have the potential to measure the fluxes of five solar neutrino components: pp, 7Be, 13N, 15O and pep. The precision of the 13N, 15O and pep components is hindered by the doublebeta decay of 136Xe and, thus, would benefit from a depleted target. A high-statistics...

Intrinsic backgrounds from Rn and Kr in the XENON100 experiment

In this paper, we describe the XENON100 data analyses used to assess the target-intrinsic background sources radon (222Rn), thoron (220Rn) and krypton (85Kr). We detail the event selections of high-energy alpha particles and decay-specific delayed coincidences. We derive distributions of the individual radionuclides inside the detector and quantify their abundances during the main three science runs of the expe...

The XENON1T dark matter experiment

TheXENON1Texperiment at theLaboratoriNazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is the first WIMP dark matter detector operating with a liquid xenon target mass above the ton-scale. Out of its 3.2 t liquid xenon inventory, 2.0 t constitute the active target of the dual-phase time projection chamber. The scintillation and ionization signals from particle interactions are detected with low-background photomultipliers. This ...
