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…

Constraints on Sub-GeV Dark Matter-Electron Scattering from the DarkSide-50 Experiment

The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +193

We present new constraints on sub-GeV dark matter particles scattering off electrons in argon based on an analysis of ionization signal data from the DarkSide-50 detector.

Low-Mass Dark Matter Search with the DarkSide-50 Experiment

The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +192

We present the results of a search for dark matter WIMPs in the mass range below 20 GeV/c^2 using a target of low-radioactivity argon. The data were obtained using the DarkSide-50…

Electroluminescence pulse shape and electron diffusion in liquid argon measured in a dual-phase TPC

P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +163

We report the measurement of the longitudinal diffusion constant in liquid argon with the DarkSide-50 dual-phase time projection chamber. The measurement is performed at drift elec…

Cryogenic Characterization of FBK RGB-HD SiPMs

C. E. Aalseth, F. Acerbi, P. Agnes +268

We report on the cryogenic characterization of Red Green Blue - High Density (RGB-HD) SiPMs developed at Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) as part of the DarkSide program of dark matt…
