Improved Limits on Scattering of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles from Reanalysis of 2013 LUX Data
Improved Limits on Scattering of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles from Reanalysis of 2013 LUX Data
We present constraints on weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP)-nucleus scattering from the 2013 data of the Large Underground Xenon dark matter experiment, including 1.4×10^{4} kg day of search exposure. This new analysis incorporates several advances: single-photon calibration at the scintillation wavelength, improved event-reconstruction algorithms, a revised background model including events …
