Title: What's below the energy threshold of noble liquid TPCs?
Zoom: TBD
Abstract:
Noble liquid Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) have demonstrated exceptional sensitivities in searches for rare processes, and produced a range of world leading experimental results in dark matter and neutrino physics. However, their full potentials are yet to be exploited. In this talk, I will describe what limits the low energy sensitivity of argon and xenon TPCs, and what are the possible approaches to boost their performance in the low energy regime. The possible physics reach of these detectors will also be discussed.
