Abstract: | The XENON1T experiment at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso is the most
sensitive direct detection experiment for dark matter in the form of weakly
interacting particles (WIMPs) with masses above $6\,$GeV/$c^2$ scattering off
nuclei. The detector employs a dual-phase time projection chamber with 2.0
metric tons of liquid xenon in the target. A one metric
$\mathrm{ton}\times\mathrm{year}$ exposure of science data was collected
between October 2016 and February 2018. This article reports on the performance
of the detector during this period and describes details of the data analysis
that led to the most stringent exclusion limits on various WIMP-nucleon
interaction models to date. In particular, signal reconstruction, event
selection and calibration of the detector response to nuclear and electronic
recoils in XENON1T are discussed. |
