Depth profile study of Pb in the surface of an NaI(Tl) crystal
G. H. Yu, C. Ha, E. J. Jeon +6
The surface Pb is one of the main background sources for dark-matter-search experiments using NaI(Tl) crystals, and its spectral features associated with the beta-decay eve…
A measurement of the scintillation decay time constant of nuclear recoils in liquid xenon with the XMASS-I detector
XMASS Collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +35
We report an in-situ measurement of the nuclear recoil (NR) scintillation decay time constant in liquid xenon (LXe) using the XMASS-I detector at the Kamioka underground laboratory…
Development of low radioactivity photomultiplier tubes for the XMASS-I detector
XMASS Collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +39
XMASS-I is a single-phase liquid xenon detector whose purpose is direct detection of dark matter. To achieve the low background requirements necessary in the detector, a new model…
Initial Performance of the COSINE-100 Experiment
G. Adhikari, P. Adhikari, E. Barbosa de Souza +49
COSINE is a dark matter search experiment based on an array of low background NaI(Tl) crystals located at the Yangyang underground laboratory. The assembly of COSINE-100 was comple…
Identification of Pb and Po in the bulk of copper samples with a low-background alpha particle counter
XMASS collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +39
We established a method to assay Pb and Po contaminations in the bulk of copper samples using a low-background alpha particle counter. The achieved sensitivity for…
A measurement of the time profile of scintillation induced by low energy gamma-rays in liquid xenon with the XMASS-I detector
XMASS Collaboration, H. Takiya, K. Abe +36
We report the measurement of the emission time profile of scintillation from gamma-ray induced events in the XMASS-I 832 kg liquid xenon scintillation detector. Decay time constant…
