Neutron disappearance and the LZ nuclear recoil event
- Published
- September 8, 2026
- Identifier
- arXiv:2609.09037
Why it is here
A nuclear-disappearance alternative that can be tested through target dependence and accompanying activity.
Machine-assisted summary
The authors interpret the recoil as disappearance of a bound xenon neutron, either spontaneously or through a dark-matter-induced reaction, and derive quiet-event fractions, oxygen constraints, and line-like behavior near threshold.
