We report results from an extensive set of measurements of the β-decay response in liquid
xenon. These measurements are derived from high-statistics calibration data from injected
sources of both H 3 and C 14 in the LUX detector. The mean light-to-charge ratio is reported
for 13 electric field values ranging from 43 to 491 V/cm, and for energies ranging from 1.5 to
145 keV.
