Evidence for ground-state electron capture of K
L. Hariasz, M. Stukel, P. C. F. Di Stefano +24
Potassium-40 is a widespread isotope whose radioactivity impacts estimated geological ages spanning billions of years, nuclear structure theory, and subatomic rare-event searches -…
A novel experimental system for the KDK measurement of the K decay scheme relevant for rare event searches
M. Stukel, B. C. Rasco, N. T. Brewer +26
Potassium-40 (K) is a long-lived, naturally occurring radioactive isotope. The decay products are prominent backgrounds for many rare event searches, including those involvi…
The KDK (potassium decay) experiment
P. C. F. Di Stefano, N. Brewer, A. FijaÅkowska +20
Potassium-40 (K) is a background in many rare-event searches and may well play a role in interpreting results from the DAMA dark-matter search. The electron-capture decay…
Fundamental Physics at the Intensity Frontier
J. L. Hewett, H. Weerts, R. Brock +465
The Proceedings of the 2011 workshop on Fundamental Physics at the Intensity Frontier. Science opportunities at the intensity frontier are identified and described in the areas of…
Rare K decay with implications for fundamental physics and geochronology
M. Stukel, L. Hariasz, P. C. F. Di Stefano +24
Potassium-40 is a widespread, naturally occurring isotope whose radioactivity impacts subatomic rare-event searches, nuclear structure theory, and estimated geological ages. A pred…
