Ultra-sensitive quantification of trace radioactive krypton-85 ( 85 Kr) is essential for low-background experiments, particularly for next-generation searches of galactic dark matter and neutrino physics using xenon-based time projection chambers (TPCs). While the rare gas mass spectrometer (RGMS) r...
