The potential of large germanium detector arrays for solar-axion searches utilizing the axio-electric effect for detection
F. T. Avignone
The sensitivities of large arrays of low-background germanium detectors for solar axion searches are investigated in the context of three coupling scenarios. A search was made for…
Double Beta Decay, Majorana Neutrinos, and Neutrino Mass
Frank T. Avignone, Steven R. Elliott, Jonathan Engel
The theoretical and experimental issues relevant to neutrinoless double-beta decay are reviewed. The impact that a direct observation of this exotic process would have on elementar…
Fabrication and Performance Tests of a Segmented P-Type HPGe Detector
George S. King, Frank T. Avignone, Christopher E. Cox +3
A p-type HPGe detector has been segmented by cutting, with a diamond saw, and etching six circumferential grooves through the Li-diffused dead layer. The degree of segmentation was…
