Investigation of the cryogenic scintillation of pure and doped sodium-iodine
M. Clark, F. Froborg, P. C. F. Di Stefano +1
We have studied the scintillation of pure and doped sodium iodide crystals handled in low humidity conditions under external and excitation from room temperature down to 4K…
Ultraviolet-induced fluorescence of poly(methyl methacrylate) compared to 1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene down to 4 K
E. Ellingwood, H. Benmansour, Q. Hars +16
Several particle-physics experiments use poly(methyl methacrylate) (a.k.a. PMMA or acrylic) vessels to contain liquid scintillators. Superluminal charged particles emitted from rad…
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR Readout Electronics System
N. Abgrall, M. Amman, I. J. Arnquist +76
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR comprises two arrays of high-purity germanium detectors constructed to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay in 76-Ge and other physics beyond the Sta…
Fluorescence of pyrene-doped polystyrene films from room temperature down to 4 K for wavelength-shifting applications
H. Benmansour, E. Ellingwood, Q. Hars +13
In liquid argon-based particle detectors, slow wavelength shifters (WLSs) could be used alongside the common, nanosecond scale, WLS tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB) for background mitig…
Development and characterization of a slow wavelength shifting coating for background rejection in liquid argon detectors
D. Gallacher, A. Leonhardt, H. Benmansour +15
We describe a technique, applicable to liquid-argon-based dark matter detectors, allowing for discrimination of alpha-decays in detector regions with incomplete light collection fr…
Quenching factor measurements of neon nuclei in neon gas
L. Balogh, C. Beaufort, A. Brossard +47
The NEWS-G collaboration uses Spherical Proportional Counters (SPCs) to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). In this paper, we report the first measurements of…
Optical calibration of the SNO+ detector in the water phase with deployed sources
SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. R. Anderson +120
SNO+ is a large-scale liquid scintillator experiment with the primary goal of searching for neutrinoless double beta decay, and is located approximately 2 km underground in SNOLAB,…
Background identification in cryogenic calorimeters through delayed coincidences
O. Azzolini, J. W. Beeman, F. Bellini +42
Localization and modeling of radioactive contaminations is a challenge that ultra-low background experiments are constantly facing. These are fundamental steps both to extract scie…
Pulseshape discrimination against low-energy Ar-39 beta decays in liquid argon with 4.5 tonne-years of DEAP-3600 data
The DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +126
The DEAP-3600 detector searches for the scintillation signal from dark matter particles scattering on a 3.3 tonne liquid argon target. The largest background comes from Ar b…
The SNO+ Experiment
SNO+ Collaboration, :, V. Albanese +251
The SNO+ experiment is located 2 km underground at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Canada. A low background search for neutrinoless double beta () decay will be conducted using 780 tonnes…
