Characterization of argon recoils at the keV scale with ReD and ReD+

L. Pandola, P. Agnes, I. Ahmad +43

The ReD experiment measured the ionization yield Qy of argon for nuclear recoils in the 2-10 keV range using a dual-phase Time Projection Chamber irradiated with neutrons from a Cf…

First Nuclear Ultra-Heavy Dark Matter Search in Argon Time Projection Chambers with the DarkSide-50 Experiment

P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +125

We report the first search for nuclear ultra-heavy dark matter (UHDM) in a dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber using the DarkSide-50 experiment. Unlike conventional wea…

Sensitivity to low-mass WIMPs with an improved liquid argon ionization response model within the DarkSide programme

F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +294

Dark matter detection experiments using liquid argon rely on a precise characterization of the ionization response to nuclear recoils, especially in the keV energy range relevant f…

Impact of extreme ultraviolet radiation on the scintillation of pure and xenon-doped liquid argon

P. Agnes, Q. Berger, M. Bomben +25

The Xenon-Argon Technology (X-ArT) collaboration presents a study on the dynamics of pure and xenon-doped liquid argon (LAr) scintillation. Using two types of silicon photomultipli…

DarkSide-20k sensitivity to light dark matter particles

20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +310

The dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber is presently one of the leading technologies to search for dark matter particles with masses below 10 GeV/c. This was demons…

Long-term temporal stability of the DarkSide-50 dark matter detector

50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +142

The stability of a dark matter detector on the timescale of a few years is a key requirement due to the large exposure needed to achieve a competitive sensitivity. It is especially…
