Cryogenic characterisation of the FBK NUV-HD-cryo Silicon Photomultipliers for the DarkSide-20k dark matter experiment

F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +298

Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) are highly promising detectors for dark matter searches due to their uniform response, scalability to large target masses, and compatib…

Low-Energy Radon Backgrounds from Electrode Grids in Dual-Phase Xenon TPCs

D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi, F. Alder +264

The dual-phase xenon time projection chamber (TPC) is a powerful technology to detect rare interactions such as scatters of dark matter particles on nuclei. In particular, the buil…

Characterisation of silicon photomultipliers in a dilution refrigerator down to 9.4 mK towards a cryogenic cosmic-ray muon veto system

DMC Collaboration, A. Kemp, S. Autti +30

We report the characterisation of a FBK NUV-HD-cryo silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) sensor operated in a 9.4 0.2 mK environment inside a dilution refrigerator, towards the dev…

Sensitivity to low-mass WIMPs with an improved liquid argon ionization response model within the DarkSide programme

F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +294

Dark matter detection experiments using liquid argon rely on a precise characterization of the ionization response to nuclear recoils, especially in the keV energy range relevant f…
