High Negative Ion Gain MMThGEM-Micromegas Detector for Directional Dark Matter Searches
A. G. McLean, S. Higashino, R. R. Marcelo Gregorio +2
The paper reports the first high‑gain operation of a combined MMThGEM‑Micromegas detector in low‑pressure SF₆, achieving record negative‑ion gas gains and demonstrating directional…
Characterization of field cage and cathode for low radioactivity operation with the CYGNO experiment
F. D. Amaro, R. Antonietti, E. Baracchini +48
Dark matter, which is considered to account for approximately the 27% of the Universe's energy-mass content, remains an open issue in modern particle physics along with its composi…
Direct in-chamber radon-220 (thoron) emanation measurements for rare-event physics experiments
R. R. Marcelo Gregorio, F. Dastgiri, A. Basharina-Freshville +7
Measuring radon emanation from detector materials is a key method for controlling radon, a significant background in rare-event physics experiments. Methods for measuring radon ema…
Modeling the light response of an optically readout GEM based TPC for the CYGNO experiment
Fernando Dominques Amaro, Rita Antonietti, Elisabetta Baracchini +56
The use of gaseous Time Projection Chambers enables the detection and the detailed study of rare events due to particles interactions with the atoms of the gas with energy releases…
Bayesian network 3D event reconstruction in the Cygno optical TPC for dark matter direct detection
Fernando Domingues Amaro, Rita Antonietti, Elisabetta Baracchini +50
The CYGNO experiment is developing a high-resolution gaseous Time Projection Chamber with optical readout for directional dark matter searches. The detector uses a helium-tetrafluo…
A Comparison of Micromegas with x/y Strip Charge Readouts for Directional Recoil Detection
Majd Ghrear, Alasdair G. McLean, Hima B. Korandla +3
Detecting the topology and direction of low-energy nuclear and electronic recoils is broadly desirable in nuclear and particle physics, with applications in coherent elastic neutri…
