Mitigation of Backgrounds from Cosmogenic Xe in Xenon Gas Experiments using He Neutron Capture

L. Rogers, B. J. P. Jones, A. Laing +89

\Xe{136} is used as the target medium for many experiments searching for \bbnonu. Despite underground operation, cosmic muons that reach the laboratory can produce spallation neutr…

Search for solar axions: the CAST experiment at CERN

Berta Beltran

Hypothetical axion-like particles with a two-photon interaction would be produced in the sun by the Primakoff process. In a laboratory magnetic field they would be transformed into…

The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST): status and prospects

CAST collaboration

The CAST experiment is being mounted at CERN. It will make use of a decommissioned LHC test magnet to look for solar axions through its conversion into photons inside the magnetic…
