Pulseshape discrimination against low-energy Ar-39 beta decays in liquid argon with 4.5 tonne-years of DEAP-3600 data

The DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +126

The DEAP-3600 detector searches for the scintillation signal from dark matter particles scattering on a 3.3 tonne liquid argon target. The largest background comes from Ar b…

Spectroscopic analysis of the argon scintillation with a wavelength sensitive particle detector

R. Santorelli, E. Sanchez Garcia, P. Garcia Abia +5

We performed a time-resolved spectroscopic study of the VUV/UV argon scintillation as a function of pressure and electric field, by means of a wavelength sensitive detector operate…

SiPM-matrix readout of two-phase argon detectors using electroluminescence in the visible and near infrared range

The DarkSide collaboration, C. E. Aalseth, S. Abdelhakim +312

Proportional electroluminescence (EL) in noble gases is used in two-phase detectors for dark matter searches to record (in the gas phase) the ionization signal induced by particle…

Design and construction of a new detector to measure ultra-low radioactive-isotope contamination of argon

The DarkSide Collaboration, C. E. Aalseth, S. Abdelhakim +328

Large liquid argon detectors offer one of the best avenues for the detection of galactic weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) via their scattering on atomic nuclei. The liq…

The liquid-argon scintillation pulseshape in DEAP-3600

The DEAP collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +98

DEAP-3600 is a liquid-argon scintillation detector looking for dark matter. Scintillation events in the liquid argon (LAr) are registered by 255 photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), and p…

Neutron production induced by -decay with Geant4

E. Mendoza, D. Cano-Ott, P. Romojaro +5

Neutron production induced by (,n) reactions is important in various scenarios. One of the most relevant ones is related to underground dark matter experiments, where the neutro…
