A position reconstruction algorithm was implemented for a liquid xenon scintillation camera aiming to reduce the uncertainty in the measurement of the energy of nuclear recoils from neutron scattering. The algorithm is based on the maximum likelihood (ML) technique. The performance of the algorithm

Directional detection of dark matter can provide unambiguous observation of dark matter interactions even in the presence of background. This article presents an experimental method to measure the direction tag (''head-tail'') of the dark matter wind by detecting the scintillation light created by t
