Commissioning data was taken with XMASS-I at the Kamioka Observatory in Japan between Nov and May And now refurbishment work is on going. XMASS-II has multi purpose of dark matter, pp solar neutrino and 0ν2β decay. Y. Suzuki, hep-ph/
800kg detector XMASS is a single phase detector with ultra pure liquid xenon. Background is reduced by a self- shielding of liquid xenon. This detector has high light yield (~14p.e./keV) & low energy threshold (~0.3keVee). This detector is sensitive for electromagnetic signals. 3

(*2) K X-rays from the tungsten used for housing. Calibration sources are used for checking detector response. The sources can be moved along the vertical axis in the detector. We can use one of five sources. Right hand animation shows a procedure of calibration data taking. First, installation of a source to a calibration rod, opening the top PMT, and insertion of the rod.

Background Background level of XMASS-I is a few event/day/keV/kg [dru] without fiducualization. It is similar level with DAMA and CoGeNT. The origin of BG for more than 5 keV were almost identified (lower figure). Also for less than 5 keV, Gore- Tex may explain the events. Events originate at the inner surface must explain major part of the observed events Full volume dru [/day/keVee/kg] ● Black line: Real data ● Colored histogram: BG (MC) Surface Cu 210Pb PMT Al 235U-231Pa 210Pb 232Th 238U-230Th PMT gamma Gore-Tex 210Pb Gore-Tex 14C PMT 写真と アルミの位置の 説明
