Spatial Imaging of Charge Transport in Silicon at Low Temperature
R. A. Moffatt, N. A. Kurinsky, C. Stanford +10
We present direct imaging measurements of charge transport across a 1 cm 1 cm 4 mm crystal of high purity silicon (20 kcm) at temperatures between 500 mK a…
Surface background suppression in liquid argon dark matter detectors using a newly discovered time component of tetraphenyl-butadiene scintillation
Chris Stanford, Shawn Westerdale, Jingke Xu +1
Decays of radioisotopes on inner detector surfaces can pose a major background concern for the direct detection of dark matter. While these backgrounds are conventionally mitigated…
DarkSide-50 532-day Dark Matter Search with Low-Radioactivity Argon
The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +172
The DarkSide-50 direct-detection dark matter experiment is a dual-phase argon time projection chamber operating at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso. This paper reports on the bl…
Electroluminescence pulse shape and electron diffusion in liquid argon measured in a dual-phase TPC
P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +163
We report the measurement of the longitudinal diffusion constant in liquid argon with the DarkSide-50 dual-phase time projection chamber. The measurement is performed at drift elec…
