Additional information

The author led the Imperial team who contributed to the underground deployment, operation and data taking, as well as instrument calibration and science exploitation. In particular, his team developed the signal and background statistical model used to derive the LUX result. The author was also a member of the internal review committee for this paper. LUX is the world’s leading dark matter experiment in sensitivity, and is based on the ‘two-phase xenon’ detector technology pioneered partly by the Imperial team and others in the UK.
