Combined Pre-Supernova Alert System with Kamland and Super-Kamiokande

KamLAND, Super-Kamiokande Collaborations, : +311

Preceding a core-collapse supernova, various processes produce an increasing amount of neutrinos of all flavors characterized by mounting energies from the interior of massive star…

Development of a low--emitting -PIC as a readout device for direction-sensitive dark matter detectors

Takashi Hashimoto, Kentaro Miuchi, Tomonori Ikeda +10

Direction sensitivity could provide robust evidence for the direct detection of weakly interacting massive particles constituting dark matter. However, the sensitivity of this meth…

Measurement of radon emanation and impurity adsorption from argon gas using ultralow radioactive zeolite

Hiroshi Ogawa, Kenta Iyoki, Minoru Matsukura +4

The amount of radioactive impurities contaminated in the detector gases is required to be kept at a very low level for rare event particle physics such as dark matter and neutrino…

Development of a low-background micro pixel chamber for directional dark matter searches

Ryota Namai, Satoshi Higashino, Hirohisa Ishiura +11

Direct detection of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) can provide strong evidence of their existence and the directional method would have an advantage over other method…

Development of a time projection chamber with a sheet-resistor field cage

Kentaro Miuchi, Tomonori Ikeda, Hirohisa Ishiura +12

A new-concept time projection chamber (TPC) using a commercial resistive sheet, sheet-resistor micro-TPC SR-microPIC, was developed and its performance was measured. SR-microTPC ha…
