Characterization of SABRE crystal NaI-33 with direct underground counting
M. Antonello, I. J. Arnquist, E. Barberio +43
Ultra-pure NaI(Tl) crystals are the key element for a model-independent verification of the long standing DAMA result and a powerful means to search for the annual modulation signa…
Simulation and background characterisation of the SABRE South experiment
E. Barberio, T. Baroncelli, L. J. Bignell +38
SABRE (Sodium iodide with Active Background REjection) is a direct detection dark matter experiment based on arrays of radio-pure NaI(Tl) crystals. The experiment aims at achieving…
The DAMA/LIBRA signal: an induced modulation effect?
R. S. James, K. Rule, E. Barberio +36
The persistence of the DAMA/LIBRA (DAMA) modulation over the past two decades has been a source of great contention within the dark matter community. The DAMA collaboration reports…
A scalable and reconfigurable industrial-grade Slow Control System for SABRE-South Dark matter experiment
S. Krishnan, S. Collins, D. Smoors +10
The Sodium iodide Active Background Rejection Experiment-South (SABRE-South) is a direct dark matter detector soon to be deployed in the Stawell gold mine, in Victoria, Australia.…
Characterisation of Hamamatsu R11065-20 PMTs for use in the SABRE South NaI(Tl) Crystal Detectors
O. Stanley, W. J. D. Melbourne, P. Urquijo +31
The SABRE Experiment is a direct detection dark matter experiment using a target composed of multiple NaI(Tl) crystals. The experiment aims to be an independent check of the DAMA/L…
Quenching factor measurements of sodium nuclear recoils in NaI:Tl determined by spectrum fitting
L. J. Bignell, I. Mahmood, F. Nuti +21
We have performed measurements of sodium nuclear recoils in NaI:Tl crystals, following scattering by neutrons produced in a Li(p,n)Be reaction. Understanding the light…
