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…
Measurements of electron transport in liquid and gas Xenon using a laser-driven photocathode
O. Njoya, T. Tsang, M. Tarka +153
Measurements of electron drift properties in liquid and gaseous xenon are reported. The electrons are generated by the photoelectric effect in a semi-transparent gold photocathode…
Reflectivity and PDE of VUV4 Hamamatsu SiPMs in Liquid Xenon
P. Nakarmi, I. Ostrovskiy, A. K. Soma +152
Understanding reflective properties of materials and photodetection efficiency (PDE) of photodetectors is important for optimizing energy resolution and sensitivity of the next gen…
Simulation of charge readout with segmented tiles in nEXO
Z. Li, W. R. Cen, A. Robinson +150
nEXO is a proposed experiment to search for the neutrino-less double beta decay () of Xe in a tonne-scale liquid xenon time projection chamber (TPC). The nEXO TPC wil…
Electromagnetic Backgrounds and Potassium-42 Activity in the DEAP-3600 Dark Matter Detector
R. Ajaj, G. R. Araujo, M. Batygov +88
The DEAP-3600 experiment is searching for WIMP dark matter with a 3.3 tonne single phase liquid argon (LAr) target, located 2.1 km underground at SNOLAB. The experimental signature…
