Low-temperature study of 35 photomultiplier tubes for the ZEPLIN III experiment

TL;DR: In this paper, a set of 35 photomultiplier tubes (ETL D730/9829Q) intended for use in the ZEPLIN III Dark Matter detector, was tested from room temperature down to −100°C, with the aim of confirming their suitability for detecting xenon scintillation light at 175 nm while immersed in the cryogenic liquid.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrostatic charging of cubic test masses in the LISA mission

TL;DR: In this article, a Monte Carlo simulation of electrostatic charging of the LISA test masses by cosmic-ray protons and alpha particles has been developed using the Geant4 toolkit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromatographic separation of radioactive noble gases from xenon

D. S. Akerib, +123 more
TL;DR: The Large Underground Xenon (LUX) experiment operates at the Sanford Underground Research Facility to detect nuclear recoils from the hypothetical Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) on a liquid xenon target as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Position Reconstruction in LUX

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an iterative method to recover the photomultiplier tube (PMT) light response directly from the calibration data using a two dimensional functional form to account for the photons reflected on the inner walls of the detector.
