论文摘要

迄今为止，旨在搜索弱相互作用的巨大颗粒的XENON双相时间投影室的相对能量分辨率显示出由于饱和效应而以高于$ \ sim $ 200 KEV的能量降解。这限制了他们在搜索罕见事件中的敏感性，例如$^{136} $ xe的中准双β衰减，其$ q $ - 价值，$ q_ {ββ} \ simeq $ 2.46 mev。对于Xenon1t双相时间投影室，我们证明其单顿信托质量的相对能量分辨率为1 $σ/μ$的相对能量分辨率低至（0.80 $ \ pm $ 0.02）％，对于$ q_ {ββ} $的单位点相互作用。我们还提出了一种新的信号校正方法来纠正信号读数系统的饱和效应，从而导致更准确的位置重建并间接改善能量分辨率。 Xenon1t取得的非常好的结果为Xenon双相暗物质检测器打开了新窗口，以同时搜索其他罕见事件。

Xenon dual-phase time projection chambers designed to search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles have so far shown a relative energy resolution which degrades with energy above $\sim$200 keV due to the saturation effects. This has limited their sensitivity in the search for rare events like the neutrinoless double-beta decay of $^{136}$Xe at its $Q$-value, $Q_{ββ}\simeq$ 2.46 MeV. For the XENON1T dual-phase time projection chamber, we demonstrate that the relative energy resolution at 1 $σ/μ$ is as low as (0.80$\pm$0.02) % in its one-ton fiducial mass, and for single-site interactions at $Q_{ββ}$. We also present a new signal correction method to rectify the saturation effects of the signal readout system, resulting in more accurate position reconstruction and indirectly improving the energy resolution. The very good result achieved in XENON1T opens up new windows for the xenon dual-phase dark matter detectors to simultaneously search for other rare events.
