Low Background kTon-Scale Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers
A. Avasthi, T. Bezerra, A. Borkum +28
We find that it is possible to increase sensitivity to low energy physics in a third or fourth DUNE-like module with careful controls over radiopurity and some modifications to a d…
Low-Energy Physics in Neutrino LArTPCs
D. Caratelli, W. Foreman, A. Friedland +285
In this white paper, we outline some of the scientific opportunities and challenges related to detection and reconstruction of low-energy (less than 100 MeV) signatures in liquid a…
Improved Sensitivity of the DRIFT-IId Directional Dark Matter Experiment using Machine Learning
J. B. R. Battat, C. Eldridge, A. C. Ezeribe +18
We demonstrate a new type of analysis for the DRIFT-IId directional dark matter detector using a machine learning algorithm called a Random Forest Classifier. The analysis labels e…
Identification of new isomers in Ac : Impact on dark matter searches
K. W. Kim, G. Adhikari, E. Barbosa de Souza +50
We report the identification of metastable isomeric states of Ac at 6.28 keV, 6.67 keV and 20.19 keV, with lifetimes of an order of 100 ns. These states are produced by the…
Test of low radioactive molecular sieves for radon filtration in SF6 gas-based rare-event physics experiments
R. R. Marcelo Gregorio, N. J. C. Spooner, J. Berry +4
Type 5A molecular sieves (MS) have been demonstrated to remove radon from SF gas. This is important for ultra-sensitive SF gas-based directional dark matter and related rar…
CYGNUS: Feasibility of a nuclear recoil observatory with directional sensitivity to dark matter and neutrinos
S. E. Vahsen, C. A. J. O'Hare, W. A. Lynch +16
Now that conventional weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter searches are approaching the neutrino floor, there has been a resurgence of interest in detectors with…
