An improved limit on the neutrinoless double-electron capture of Ar with GERDA
GERDA Collaboration, M. Agostini, A. Alexander +110
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) experiment operated enriched high-purity germanium detectors in a liquid argon cryostat, which contains 0.33% of Ar, a candidate isotope…
Characterization of inverted coaxial Ge detectors in GERDA for future double- decay experiments
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, G. R. Araujo +108
Neutrinoless double- decay of Ge is searched for with germanium detectors where source and detector of the decay are identical. For the success of future experiments it i…
Calibration of the GERDA experiment
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, G. R. Araujo +109
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) collaboration searched for neutrinoless double- decay in Ge with an array of about 40 high-purity isotopically-enriched germanium det…
Final Results of GERDA on the Search for Neutrinoless Double- Decay
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, G. R. Araujo +112
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) experiment searched for the lepton-number-violating neutrinoless double- () decay of Ge, whose discovery would have far-reachin…
Modeling of GERDA Phase II data
GERDA collaboration, Matteo Agostini, Alexander M. Bakalyarov +107
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) experiment at the Gran Sasso underground laboratory (LNGS) of INFN is searching for neutrinoless double-beta () decay of Ge. The t…
Probing Majorana neutrinos with double- decay
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, A. M. Bakalyarov +111
A discovery that neutrinos are not the usual Dirac but Majorana fermions, i.e. identical to their antiparticles, would be a manifestation of new physics with profound implications…
Characterization of 30 Ge enriched Broad Energy Ge detectors for GERDA Phase II
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, A. M. Bakalyarov +112
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) is a low background experiment located at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy, which searches for neutrinoless double beta decay o…
Muon-induced neutrons in lead and copper at shallow depth
R. Kneißl, A. Caldwell, Q. Du +6
Next generation low-background experiments require a detailed understanding of all possible radiation backgrounds. One important radiation source are muon-induced neutrons. Their p…
Improved limit on neutrinoless double beta decay of Ge from GERDA Phase II
M. Agostini, A. M. Bakalyarov, M. Balata +105
The GERDA experiment searches for the lepton number violating neutrinoless double beta decay of Ge (Ge Se + 2e) operating bare Ge diodes with…
Direct measurement of neutrons induced in lead by cosmic muons at a shallow underground site
Qiang Du, Iris Abt, Anton Empl +9
Neutron production in lead by cosmic muons has been studied with a Gadolinium doped liquid scintillator detector. The detector was installed next to the Muon-Induced Neutron Indire…
Upgrade for Phase II of the GERDA Experiment
M. Agostini, A. M. Bakalyarov, M. Balata +111
The GERDA collaboration is performing a sensitive search for neutrinoless double beta decay of Ge at the INFN Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy. The upgrade of the…
Background free search for neutrinoless double beta decay with GERDA Phase II
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +113
The Standard Model of particle physics cannot explain the dominance of matter over anti-matter in our Universe. In many model extensions this is a very natural consequence of neutr…
Limits on uranium and thorium bulk content in GERDA Phase I detectors

Limit on the Radiative Neutrinoless Double Electron Capture of Ar from GERDA Phase I
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +115
Neutrinoless double electron capture is a process that, if detected, would give evidence of lepton number violation and the Majorana nature of neutrinos. A search for neutrinoless…
