This work presents an analysis of monoenergetic electronic recoil peaks in
the dark-matter-search and calibration data from the first underground science
run of the Large Underground Xenon (LUX) detector. Liquid xenon charge and
light yields for electronic recoil energies between 5.2 and 661.7 keV are
measured, as well as the energy resolution for the LUX detector at those same
energies. Additionally, there is an interpretation of existing measurements and
descriptions of electron-ion recombination fluctuations in liquid xenon as
limiting cases of a more general liquid xenon re- combination fluctuation
model. Measurements of the standard deviation of these fluctuations at
monoenergetic electronic recoil peaks exhibit a linear dependence on the number
of ions for energy deposits up to 661.7 keV, consistent with previous LUX
measurements between 2-16 keV with 3H. We highlight similarities in liquid
xenon recombination for electronic and nuclear recoils with a comparison of
recombination fluctuations measured with low-energy calibration data.Comment: 11 pages, 12 figures, 3 table
