    Observation of low-lying isomeric states in 136^{136}Cs: a new avenue for dark matter and solar neutrino detection in xenon detectors

    Full text link
    We report on new measurements establishing the existence of low-lying isomeric states in 136^{136}Cs using γ\gamma rays produced in 136^{136}Xe(p,n)136^{136}Cs reactions. Two states with O(100)\mathcal{O}(100)~ns lifetimes are placed in the decay sequence of the 136^{136}Cs levels that are populated in charged-current interactions of solar neutrinos and fermionic dark matter with 136^{136}Xe. Xenon-based experiments can therefore exploit a delayed-coincidence tag of these interactions, greatly suppressing backgrounds to enable spectroscopic studies of solar neutrinos and dark matter.Comment: Supplemental material available upon request.
