Abstract: | TheXENON1Texperiment at theLaboratoriNazionali
del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is the first WIMP dark matter
detector operating with a liquid xenon target mass above
the ton-scale. Out of its 3.2 t liquid xenon inventory, 2.0 t
constitute the active target of the dual-phase time projection
chamber. The scintillation and ionization signals from particle
interactions are detected with low-background photomultipliers.
This article describes the XENON1T instrument and
its subsystems as well as strategies to achieve an unprecedented
low background level. First results on the detector
response and the performance of the subsystems are also
presented. |
