Abstract
An integral method is described for processing xenon used as a working medium in the RED-100 two-phase emission detector constructed in the NRNU MEPhI to study the process of elastic coherent neutrino scattering off atomic nuclei. The developed technology for purifying xenon and the detector has made it possible to increase the lifetime of quasi-free electrons in the 205-kg liquid xenon from ≤0.1 to ≥400 μs in fields of 50−500 V/cm. The entire procedure takes approximately 1000 h. The method can be used to process working media for new-generation two-phase emission detectors designed to conduct basic research, in particular, searching for dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles, detecting boron solar neutrinos, and searching for neutrinoless double-beta decay.
