We apply deep neural networks (DNN) to data from the EXO-200 experiment. In studied cases, DNN is able reconstruct relevant parameters—total energy and position—directly raw digitized waveforms, with minimal exceptions. For first time, developed algorithms are evaluated on real detector calibration data. The accuracy of reconstruction either reaches or exceeds what was achieved by conventional approaches over course Most existing event classification in particle physics trained Monte Carlo...

In this paper, we conduct the first systematic investigation of twisted cubics on Gushel-Mukai (GM) fourfolds. We then study double EPW cube, a 6-dimensional hyperk\"ahler manifold associated with general GM fourfold $X$, through Bridgeland moduli space, and show that it is maximal rationally connected (MRC) quotient Hilbert scheme $X$. also prove cube admits covering by Lagrangian subvarieties constructed from schemes threefolds, which provides new example for conjecture O'Grady.

The EXO-200 Collaboration is searching for neutrinoless double $\ensuremath{\beta}$ decay using a liquid xenon (LXe) time projection chamber. This measurement relies on modeling the transport of charge deposits produced by interactions in LXe to allow discrimination between signal and background events.

Future tonne-scale liquefied noble gas detectors depend on efficient light detection in the VUV range. In past years Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) have emerged as a valid alternative to standard photomultiplier tubes or large area avalanche photodiodes. The next generation double beta decay experiment, nEXO, with 5 tonne liquid xenon time projection chamber, will use SiPMs for detecting $178\,\text{nm}$ scintillation light, order achieve an energy resolution of $\sigma / Q_{\beta\beta} =...

As neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments become more sensitive and intrinsic radioactivity in detector materials is reduced, previously minor contributions to the background must be understood eliminated. With this mind, cosmogenic backgrounds have been studied with EXO-200 experiment.
