Journal ArticleDOI

First results from the LUX dark matter experiment at the Sanford Underground Research Facility

D. S. Akerib, +101 more
TL;DR: The first WIMP search data set is reported, taken during the period from April to August 2013, presenting the analysis of 85.3 live days of data, finding that the LUX data are in disagreement with low-mass W IMP signal interpretations of the results from several recent direct detection experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Improved limits on scattering of weakly interacting massive particles from reanalysis of 2013 LUX data

D. S. Akerib, +100 more
TL;DR: This new analysis incorporates several advances: single-photon calibration at the scintillation wavelength, improved event-reconstruction algorithms, a revised background model including events originating on the detector walls in an enlarged fiducial volume, and new calibrations from decays of an injected tritium β source and from kinematically constrained nuclear recoils down to 1.1 keV.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment

D. S. Akerib, +93 more
TL;DR: The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) detector as mentioned in this paper is a dual-phase Xenon detector with a spin independent cross-section per nucleon of 2 × 10 − 46 cm 2, equivalent to ∼ 1 event / 100 kg / month in the inner 100-kg fiducial volume (FV) of the 370-kg detector.
ReportDOI

LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Conceptual Design Report

D. S. Akerib, +194 more
TL;DR: The design and performance of the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) detector is described as of March 2015 in this Conceptual Design Report as mentioned in this paper. And the LZ detector will be located at the Sanford Underground Research Facility in South Dakota.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

D. S. Akerib, +100 more
TL;DR: The spin-dependent WIMP-neutron limit is the most sensitive constraint to date.
