Capturing Relic Neutrinos with beta-decaying nuclei
Alfredo G. Cocco, Gianpiero Mangano, Marcello Messina
We summarize a novel approach which has been recently proposed for direct detection of low energy neutrino backgrounds such as the cosmological relic neutrinos, exploiting neutrino…
First results from a Dark Matter search with liquid Argon at 87 K in the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory
P. Benetti, R. Acciarri, F. Adamo +29
A new method of searching for dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP) has been developed with the direct detection of the low energy nuclear recoils…
Measurement of the specific activity of Ar-39 in natural argon
P. Benetti, F. Calaprice, E. Calligarich +21
We report on the measurement of the specific activity of Ar-39 in natural argon. The measurement was performed with a 2.3-liter two-phase (liquid and gas) argon drift chamber. The…
WARP: a WIMP double phase Argon detector
R. Brunetti, E. Calligarich, M. Cambiaghi +21
The WARP programme for dark matter search with a double phase argon detector is presented. In such a detector both excitation and ionization produced by an impinging particle are e…
WARP liquid argon detector for dark matter survey
R. Brunetti, E. Calligarich, M. Cambiaghi +18
The WARP programme is a graded programme intended to search for cold Dark Matter in the form of WIMP's. These particles may produce via weak interactions nuclear recoils in the ene…
