Simulation of STIRAP from the 1S to the 2S states of the Hydrogen/Antihydrogen atoms
AbdAlGhaffar K. Amer, A. Capra, T. Friesen +4
Achieving a high population of antihydrogen/hydrogen atoms in the 2S level is essential for spectroscopy measurements testing similarities between matter and antimatter. We propose…
Quality Assurance and Quality Control of the SiPM production for the DarkSide-20k dark matter experiment
F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +289
DarkSide-20k is a novel liquid argon dark matter detector currently under construction at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) of the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nuclear…
A new hybrid gadolinium nanoparticles-loaded polymeric material for neutron detection in rare event searches
20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +311
Experiments aimed at direct searches for WIMP dark matter require highly effective reduction of backgrounds and control of any residual radioactive contamination. In particular, ne…
Directionality of nuclear recoils in a liquid argon time projection chamber
20k Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. Ahmad +264
The direct search for dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP) is performed by detecting nuclear recoils (NR) produced in a target material from the W…
Measurement of isotopic separation of argon with the prototype of the cryogenic distillation plant Aria for dark matter searches
20k Collaboration
The Aria cryogenic distillation plant, located in Sardinia, Italy, is a key component of the DarkSide-20k experimental program for WIMP dark matter searches at the INFN Laboratori…
Study of cosmogenic activation above ground for the DarkSide-20k experiment
20k Collaboration
The activation of materials due to exposure to cosmic rays may become an important background source for experiments investigating rare event phenomena. DarkSide-20k, currently und…
Design and Performance of a Novel Low Energy Multi-Species Beamline for the ALPHA Antihydrogen Experiment
C. J. Baker, W. Bertsche, A. Capra +47
The ALPHA Collaboration, based at the CERN Antiproton Decelerator, has recently implemented a novel beamline for low-energy ( 100 eV) positron and antiproton transport be…
Sensitivity projections for a dual-phase argon TPC optimized for light dark matter searches through the ionization channel
P. Agnes, I. Ahmad, S. Albergo +296
Dark matter lighter than 10 GeV/c encompasses a promising range of candidates. A conceptual design for a new detector, DarkSide-LowMass, is presented, based on the DarkSide-50…
Limit on the Electric Charge of Antihydrogen
A. Capra, C. Amole, M. D. Ashkezari +37
The ALPHA collaboration has successfully demonstrated the production and the confinement of cold antihydrogen, . An analysis of trapping data allowed a strin…
Lifetime of Magnetically Trapped Antihydrogen in ALPHA
Andrea Capra
How long antihydrogen atoms linger in the ALPHA magnetic trap is an important characteristic of the ALPHA apparatus. The initial trapping experiments in 2010 [1] were conducted wit…
Design of a Radial TPC for Antihydrogen Gravity Measurement with ALPHA-g
Andrea Capra, Pierre-André Amaudruz, Daryl Bishop +10
The gravitational interaction of antimatter and matter has never been directly probed. ALPHA-g is a novel experiment that aims to perform the first measurement of the antihydrogen…
In situ electromagnetic field diagnostics with an electron plasma in a Penning-Malmberg trap
C. Amole, M. D. Ashkezari, M. Baquero-Ruiz +37
We demonstrate a novel detection method for the cyclotron resonance frequency of an electron plasma in a Penning-Malmberg trap. With this technique, the electron plasma is used as…
