An assay-based background projection for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR using Monte Carlo Uncertainty Propagation
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +53
The background index is an important quantity which is used in projecting and calculating the half-life sensitivity of neutrinoless double-beta decay () experiments. A novel…
Constraints on the decay of Ta
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +56
Ta is a rare nuclear isomer whose decay has never been observed. Its remarkably long lifetime surpasses the half-lives of all other known and electron capture decays d…
Modeling Backgrounds for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
C. R. Haufe, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +55
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR is a neutrinoless double-beta decay () experiment containing 30 kg of p-type point contact germanium detectors enriched to 88% in 76Ge and $\s…
Final Result of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR's Search for Neutrinoless Double- Decay in Ge
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +57
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR searched for neutrinoless double- decay () of Ge using modular arrays of high-purity Ge detectors operated in vacuum cryostats in a low-ba…
Search for solar axions via axion-photon coupling with the Majorana Demonstrator
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +55
Axions were originally proposed to explain the strong-CP problem in QCD. Through the axion-photon coupling, the Sun could be a major source of axions, which could be measured in so…
Search for charge nonconservation and Pauli exclusion principle violation with the Majorana Demonstrator
MAJORANA Collaboration, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +55
Charge conservation and the Pauli exclusion principle result from fundamental symmetries in the standard model of particle physics, and are typically taken as axiomatic. High-preci…
