Detection of scintillation light in noble gases with wavelength-shifting optical fibers
S. R. Soleti, S. Torelli, G. Martínez-Lema +110
Wavelength-shifting (WLS) techniques enable particle detectors based on noble gases, whose scintillation light is predominantly emitted in the vacuum-ultraviolet. We investigate WL…
Electroluminescence Yield Measurements in Xenon Gas with the NEXT-DEMO++ Detector
NEXT Collaboration, J. Renner, J. D. Villamil +111
The NEXT-DEMO++ detector, a high-pressure xenon gas time projection chamber serving as a prototype for the NEXT-100 experiment, was used to measure the electroluminescence (EL) yie…
High Voltage Delivery and Distribution for the NEXT-100 Time Projection Chamber
NEXT Collaboration, C. Adams, H. Almazán +105
A critical element in the realization of large liquid and gas time projection chambers (TPCs) is the delivery and distribution of high voltages into and around the detector. Such e…
Performance of an Optical TPC Geant4 Simulation with Opticks GPU-Accelerated Photon Propagation
NEXT Collaboration, I. Parmaksiz, K. Mistry +113
We investigate the performance of Opticks, a NVIDIA OptiX API 7.5 GPU-accelerated photon propagation tool compared with a single-threaded Geant4 simulation. We compare the simulati…
Efficient noble gas purification using hot getters and gas circulation by convection
J. M. R. Teixeira, C. A. O. Henriques, P. A. O. C. Silva +3
Noble gas radiation detectors with optical readout are gaining popularity in fields like astrophysics and particle physics due to their ability to produce both ionization and scint…
Fluorescence Imaging of Individual Ions and Molecules in Pressurized Noble Gases for Barium Tagging in Xe
NEXT Collaboration, N. Byrnes, E. Dey +112
The imaging of individual Ba ions in high pressure xenon gas is one possible way to attain background-free sensitivity to neutrinoless double beta decay and hence establish…
