Description

The XMASS project utilizes ultrapure liquid xenon and aims to detect pp and 7Be solar neutrinos by means of νee scattering. It requires low background and a low threshold which will also enable one to search for dark matter in the Galactic halo. The sensitivity of an 800-kg liquid-xenon detector for a dark matter search experiment based on the experimental results has been estimated

Abstract (Russian)

Описывается проект эксперимента XMASS, предназначенного для регистрации рр- и 7Be-солнечных нейтрино взаимодействий с помощью νee-рассеяния и основанного на использовании сверхчистого жидкого ксенона. В этом случае требуется обеспечение низкого фона и низкого порога, что позволит реализовать поиски темной материи в галактических гало. Исходя из более ранних экспериментов показано, что чувствительность 800-кг детектора с жидким ксеноном обеспечит поиск темной материи
