Secondary scintillation yield of xenon with sub-percent levels of CO2 additive for rare-event detection

Xe–CO2 mixtures are important alternatives to pure xenon in Time Projection Chambers (TPC) based on secondary scintillation (electroluminescence) signal amplification with applications in the important field of rare event detection such as directional dark matter, double electron capture and double...
