Description

In this talk, I will provide an introduction to the Freiburg PANCAKE LXe platform, highlighting its capabilities for XLZD-related R&D. Then, I will present results from operating a 1.5-meter-diameter, 3-centimeter-deep, dual-phase TPC in this unshielded platform. Measurements of various detector- and LXe-specific quantities demonstrate that operating a large-diameter TPC is feasible in this high-background environment. These quantities include the electron lifetime dependent on purity and the electron drift velocity dependent on electric field.
