XENON1T Detector Disassembly

The XENON1T team has recently disassembled the Time Projection Chamber (TPC) at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso to prepare for the installation of the new XENONnT detector.

Shown at the right is a picture taken during the photomultiplier tube (PMT) array disassembly. After removal of the bottom array of PMTs, one can see the electrodes, reflectors, and top array of PMTs inside the detector. The PMTs will be safely stored until installation in XENONnT later this year.
