摘要：

Some engineering issues relevant to tonne scale liquid xenon based detectors for weakly interacting dark matter particles (WIMPs) are discussed. The vessel design chosen for this study is a pure copper vessel containing 250 kg of liquid and vapour phase xenon at a maximum pressure of 4 atmospheres. Finite element modelling tools are used to calculate the mass and dimensions of the vessel. The physical size of a passive, room temperature gas dump for such a detector is estimated.
