Low-Energy Radon Backgrounds from Electrode Grids in Dual-Phase Xenon TPCs
D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder, B. J. Almquist et autres
The dual-phase xenon time projection chamber (TPC) is a powerful technology to detect rare interactions such as scatters of dark matter particles on nuclei. In particular, the built-in gain of ionization signals in a dual-phase TPC makes it sensitive to events in …
