Neutron Interactions as Seen by A Segmented Germanium Detector
I. Abt, A. Caldwell, K. Kroeninger +3
The GERmanium Detector Array, GERDA, is designed for the search for ``neutrinoless double beta decay'' (0-nu-2-beta) with germanium detectors enriched in Ge76. An 18-fold segmented…
Pulse shapes from electron and photon induced events in segmented high-purity germanium detectors
I. Abt, A. Caldwell, K. Kröninger +3
Experiments built to search for neutrinoless double beta-decay are limited in their sensitivity not only by the exposure but also by the amount of background encountered. Radioacti…
Identification of photons in double beta-decay experiments using segmented germanium detectors - studies with a GERDA Phase II prototype detector
I. Abt, A. Caldwell, K. Kröninger +3
The sensitivity of experiments searching for neutrinoless double beta-decay of germanium was so far limited by the background induced by external gamma-radiation. Segmented germani…
Characterization of the first true coaxial 18-fold segmented n-type prototype detector for the GERDA project
I. Abt, A. Caldwell, D. Gutknecht +7
The first true coaxial 18-fold segmented n-type HPGe prototype detector produced by Canberra-France for the GERDA neutrinoless double beta-decay project was tested both at Canberra…
Detection of the Natural Alpha Decay of Tungsten
C. Cozzini, G. Angloher, C. Bucci +21
The natural alpha decay of 180W has been unambiguously detected for the first time. The alpha peak is found in a (gamma,beta and neutron)-free background spectrum. This has been ac…
