Conceptual design and simulation of a water Cherenkov muon veto for the XENON1T experiment

Elena Aprile, +90 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a water Cherenkov detector of 10 m height and diameter has been developed, equipped with 8 inch photomultipliers and cladded by a reflective foil.
Journal ArticleDOI

Exclusion of leptophilic dark matter models using XENON100 electronic recoil data

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed an unbinned profile likelihood analysis to identify periodic variations of the electronic recoil event rate in the (2-6) keV energy range recorded between February 2011 and March 2012 with the XENON100 detector.
Journal ArticleDOI

Analysis of the XENON100 Dark Matter Search Data

TL;DR: The XENON100 experiment as discussed by the authors aims at direct detection of dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs), based on their interactions with xenon nuclei in an ultra low background dual-phase time projection chamber.
Journal ArticleDOI

Discrimination of nuclear recoils from alpha particles with superheated liquids

TL;DR: The PICASSO collaboration observed for the first time a significant difference between the acoustic signals induced by neutrons and alpha particles in a detector based on superheated liquids, which offers the possibility of improved background suppression and could be especially useful for dark matter experiments.
