Pulse Shape Discrimination of low-energy nuclear and electron recoils for improved particle identification in NaI:Tl
N. J. Spinks, L. J. Bignell, G. J. Lane +20
The scintillation mechanism in NaI:Tl crystals produces different pulse shapes that are dependent on the incoming particle type. The time distribution of scintillation light from n…
Quenching factor measurements of sodium nuclear recoils in NaI:Tl determined by spectrum fitting
L. J. Bignell, I. Mahmood, F. Nuti +21
We have performed measurements of sodium nuclear recoils in NaI:Tl crystals, following scattering by neutrons produced in a Li(p,n)Be reaction. Understanding the light…
SABRE and the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory: Dark Matter Research at the Australian National University
Lindsey J. Bignell, Elisabetta Barberio, Michaela B. Froehlich +13
The direct detection of dark matter is a key problem in astroparticle physics that generally requires the use of deep-underground laboratories for a low-background environment wher…
TDPAC and first-principles study of electronic and structural properties of Pd-vacancy complex in undoped germanium
Adurafimihan A. Abiona, Williams Kemp, Heiko Timmers
Pd is one of the metals suitable for inducing low-temperature crystallization in Ge. However, it is not clear how residual Pd atoms are integrated into the Ge lattice. Therefore, t…
Investigation of the role of neutron transfer in the fusion of 32,34S with 197Au,208Pb using quasi-elastic scattering
T. J. Schuck, H. Timmers, M. Dasgupta
Excitation functions for quasi-elastic scattering have been measured at backward angles for the systems 32,34S+197Au and 32,34S+208Pb for energies spanning the Coulomb barrier. Rep…
