Liquid argon light collection and veto modeling in GERDA Phase II
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, A. Alexander +115
The ability to detect liquid argon scintillation light from within a densely packed high-purity germanium detector array allowed the GERDA experiment to reach an exceptionally low…
Optical properties of low background PEN structural components for the LEGEND-200 experiment
L. Manzanillas, Y. Efremenko, M. Febbraro +6
Polyethylene Naphthalate (PEN) plastic scintillator has been identified as potential self-vetoing structural material in low-background physics experiments. Scintillating component…
Pulse shape analysis in GERDA Phase II
The GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, G. Araujo +113
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) collaboration searched for neutrinoless double- decay in Ge using isotopically enriched high purity germanium detectors at the Labora…
Production and validation of scintillating structural components from low-background Poly(ethylene naphthalate)
Y. Efremenko, M. Febbraro, F. Fischer +28
Poly Ethylene Naphthalate (PEN) is an industrial polymer plastic which is investigated as a low background, transparent, scintillating and wavelength shifting structural material.…
LEGEND-1000 Preconceptual Design Report
LEGEND Collaboration, N. Abgrall, I. Abt +261
We propose the construction of LEGEND-1000, the ton-scale Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless Decay. This international experiment is designed to answer one o…
Simulation of semiconductor detectors in 3D with SolidStateDetectors.jl
I. Abt, F. Fischer, F. Hagemann +4
The open-source software package SolidStateDetectorsjl to calculate the fields and simulate the drifts of charge carriers in solid state detectors, together with the correspondi…
Characterization of inverted coaxial Ge detectors in GERDA for future double- decay experiments
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, G. R. Araujo +108
Neutrinoless double- decay of Ge is searched for with germanium detectors where source and detector of the decay are identical. For the success of future experiments it i…
Calibration of the GERDA experiment
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, G. R. Araujo +109
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) collaboration searched for neutrinoless double- decay in Ge with an array of about 40 high-purity isotopically-enriched germanium det…
Usage of PEN as self-vetoing structural material in low background experiments
I. Abt, Y. Efremenko, M. Febbraro +22
PEN is an industrial polyester plastic which has become interesting for the physics community as a new type of plastic scintillator. PEN scintillates in the blue regime, which is i…
Use of polyethylene naphthalate as a self-vetoing structural material
Y. Efremenko, L. Fajt, M. Febbraro +15
The discovery of scintillation in the blue regime from polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), a commonly used high-performance industrial polyester plastic, has sparked considerable inter…
The Large Enriched Germanium Experiment for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay (LEGEND)
LEGEND Collaboration, N. Abgrall, A. Abramov +230
The observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay (0) would show that lepton number is violated, reveal that neutrinos are Majorana particles, and provide information on neutr…
PEN as self-vetoing structural Material
B. Majorovits, S. Eck, F. Fischer +7
Polyethylene Naphtalate (PEN) is a mechanically very favorable polymer. Earlier it was found that thin foils made from PEN can have very high radio-purity compared to other commerc…
