Characterization of a $^{220}$Rn source for low-energy electronic recoil calibration of the XENONnT detector

Low-background liquid xenon detectors are utilized in the investigation of rare events, including dark matter and neutrinoless double beta decay. For their calibration, gaseous $^{220}$Rn can be used. After being introduced into the xenon, its progeny isotope $^{212}$Pb induces homogeneously distributed, low-energy ($
