Observation of Galactic center in the sub-MeV gamma-ray band with electron-tracking Compton camera
Tomonori Ikeda, Toru Tanimori, Atsushi Takada +6
We report the direct detection of gamma-ray emission from the Galactic center in the 150-600 keV band using the electron-tracking Compton camera (ETCC), which has a wide field of v…
Development of a low-background micro pixel chamber for directional dark matter searches
Ryota Namai, Satoshi Higashino, Hirohisa Ishiura +11
Direct detection of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) can provide strong evidence of their existence and the directional method would have an advantage over other method…
High-energy extension of the gamma-ray band observable with an electron-tracking Compton camera
Tomohiko Oka, Shingo Ogio, Mitsuru Abe +12
Although the MeV gamma-ray band is a promising energy-band window in astrophysics, the current situation of MeV gamma-ray astronomy significantly lags behind those of the other ene…
Background contributions in the electron-tracking Compton camera onboard SMILE-2+
Tomonori Ikeda, Atsushi Takada, Taito Takemura +5
The Mega electron volt (MeV) gamma-ray observation is a promising diagnostic tool for observing the universe. However, the sensitivity of MeV gamma-ray telescopes is limited due to…
First reconstruction of absolute three-dimensional position of nuclear recoils using a negative ion -TPC for dark matter search experiments
Satoshi Higashino, Takuya Shimada, Tomonori Ikeda +5
Studies of micro time projection chambers using negative ion gas (NITPC) are conducted especially for direction-sensitive dark matter searches. A NITPC enables to measure the…
Direction-sensitive dark matter search with three-dimensional vector-type tracking in NEWAGE
Takuya Shimada, Satoshi Higashino, Tomonori Ikeda +18
NEWAGE is a direction-sensitive dark matter search experiment with a three-dimensional tracking detector based on a gaseous micro time projection chamber. A direction-sensitive dar…
