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.

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.

TL;DR: In this paper, the expected background rate from the background model for the 85.3-day WIMP search run is (2.6 ± 0.4 stat ) × 10 - 3 events keV ee - 1 kg - 1 day - 1, consistent with model projections.
