The Darkside-20k Data Acquisition System
Fabio Acerbi, Pushparaj Adhikari, Paolo Agnes +289
The paper describes the data acquisition (DAQ) system for the DarkSide‑20k liquid‑argon dark‑matter detector, which uses continuous, trigger‑less digitisation of 2720 SiPM channels…
First Nuclear Ultra-Heavy Dark Matter Search in Argon Time Projection Chambers with the DarkSide-50 Experiment
P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +125
We report the first search for nuclear ultra-heavy dark matter (UHDM) in a dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber using the DarkSide-50 experiment. Unlike conventional wea…
First evidence of neutrino absorption on argon using B solar neutrinos in DEAP-3600
P. Adhikari, P. -A. Amaudruz, D. J. Auty +113
We report experimental evidence for electron neutrino charged-current interactions (neutrino absorption, CC ) from B solar neutrinos on Ar using an exposure of (…
Dark Matter Search with the DEAP-3600 Detector using the Profile Likelihood Ratio Method
DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +122
We present here a search for WIMP dark matter using 790.8 live-days of data collected with 3269 kg of liquid argon (1266 kg fiducial) by the DEAP-3600 detector at SNOLAB, using the…
Characterization of argon recoils at the keV scale with ReD and ReD+
L. Pandola, P. Agnes, I. Ahmad +43
The ReD experiment measured the ionization yield Qy of argon for nuclear recoils in the 2-10 keV range using a dual-phase Time Projection Chamber irradiated with neutrons from a Cf…
Fermionic sub-GeV Dark Matter from evaporating Primordial Black Holes at DarkSide-50
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque +125
We present a search for boosted dark matter from Primordial Black Holes (PBH) evaporation using the DarkSide-50 ionization-signal-only dataset corresponding to the experiment's ($1…
