Performance of a first multi-cell WOM-based liquid scintillator detector as prototype for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger
M. Böhles, A. Brignoli, P. Deucher +20
The Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP) Experiment was approved by CERN in 2024. Feebly-interacting particles that are produced in a proton Beam Dump Facility (BDF) will decay in th…
Enhancing Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay Sensitivity of Liquid-Xenon Time Projection Chamber with Augmented Convolutional Neural Network
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +173
Dual-phase time projection chamber (TPC) that employs a multi-ton-scale liquid xenon (LXe) target mass is a pioneering detector technology to search for dark matter. Beyond its adv…
Performance of Prototypes with Different Reflector Materials for the SHiP Liquid Scintillator Surrounding Background Tagger
A. Brignoli, P. Deucher, C. Eckardt +19
The baseline technology for the Surrounding Background Tagger of the recently approved SHiP experiment relies on liquid scintillator composed of linear alkylbenzene and 2,5-dipheny…
Radon Removal in XENONnT down to the Solar Neutrino Level
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +169
The XENONnT experiment has achieved an exceptionally low Rn activity concentration within its inner 5.9tonne liquid xenon detector of (0.900.01stat.$\…
The neutron veto of the XENONnT experiment: Results with demineralized water
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +167
Radiogenic neutrons emitted by detector materials are one of the most challenging backgrounds for the direct search of dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particl…
Low-Energy Nuclear Recoil Calibration of XENONnT with a YBe Photoneutron Source
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +169
Characterizing low-energy, keV-range nuclear recoils near the detector threshold is one of the major challenges for large direct dark matter detectors. To that end, we have success…
Model-independent searches of new physics in DARWIN with a semi-supervised deep learning pipeline
J. Aalbers, K. Abe, M. Adrover +231
We present a novel deep learning pipeline to perform a model-independent, likelihood-free search for anomalous (i.e., non-background) events in the proposed next generation multi-t…
The XENONnT Dark Matter Experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +192
The multi-staged XENON program at INFN Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso aims to detect dark matter with two-phase liquid xenon time projection chambers of increasing size and se…
Performance of a First Full-Size WOM-Based Liquid Scintillator Detector Cell as Prototype for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger
J. Alt, O. Bezshyyko, M. Böhles +21
As a prototype detector for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger (SBT), we constructed a cell (120 cm x 80 cm x 25 cm) made from corten steel that is filled with liquid scintilla…
