Radon-induced backgrounds in the NEXT-100 experiment

NEXT Collaboration, C. Cortes-Parra, P. Novella +111

The NEXT-100 detector at the LSC aims at the first competitive search for the \bbnonu decay using a high-pressure \Xe{136} electroluminescent time projection chamber. The first low…

The Canfranc Axion Detection Experiment (CADEx): Search for axions at 90 GHz with Kinetic Inductance Detectors

Beatriz Aja, Sergio Arguedas Cuendis, Ivan Arregui +33

We propose a novel experiment, the Canfranc Axion Detection Experiment (CADEx), to probe dark matter axions with masses in the range 330-460 eV, within the W-band (80-110 GHz),…

Ba ion trapping by organic submonolayer: towards an ultra-low background neutrinoless double beta decay detector

P. Herrero-Gómez, J. P. Calupitan, M. Ilyn +112

If neutrinos are their own antiparticles, the otherwise-forbidden nuclear reaction known as neutrinoless double beta decay () can occur, with a characteristic lifetime which…

Wide-band full-wave electromagnetic modal analysis of the coupling between dark-matter axions and photons in microwave resonators

P. Navarro, Benito Gimeno, A. Alvarez Melcon +9

The electromagnetic coupling axion-photon in a microwave cavity is revisited with the Boundary Integral - Resonant Mode Expansion (BI-RME) 3D technique. Such full-wave modal techni…

Sensitivity of the NEXT experiment to Xe-124 double electron capture

G. Martínez-Lema, M. Martínez-Vara, M. Sorel +88

Double electron capture by proton-rich nuclei is a second-order nuclear process analogous to double beta decay. Despite their similarities, the decay signature is quite different,…

Axion Searches with Microwave Filters: the RADES project

Alejandro Álvarez Melcón, Sergio Arguedas Cuendis, Cristian Cogollos +12

We propose, design and construct a variant of the conventional axion haloscope concept that could be competitive in the search for dark matter axions of masses in the decade 10-100…
