Neutral bremsstrahlung in two-phase argon electroluminescence: further studies and possible applications
arXiv:1905.05502 · doi:10.1016/j.nima.2019.162432
Abstract
We further study the effect of neutral bremsstrahlung (NBrS) in two-phase argon electroluminescence (EL), revealed recently in [1]. The absolute EL yield due to NBrS effect, in the visible and NIR range, was remeasured in pure gaseous argon in the two-phase mode, using a two-phase detector with EL gap read out directly by cryogenic PMTs and SiPMs. Possible applications of the NBrS effect in detection science are discussed, including those in two-phase dark matter detectors.
