  • Abstract
    This paper presents a new measurement of the photon yield and the first measurement of the Fano factor in liquid xenon with a photomultiplier as photodetector. The observed photoelectron yield is 3.2/MeV which, after correction for detector solid angle and efficiency, corresponds to 78 600 photons/MeV. The Fano factor observed, Fs = 0.033 ± 0.045, agrees with the value measured in the gaseous state by other authors.
