Usage of PEN as self-vetoing structural material in low background experiments
I. Abt, Y. Efremenko, M. Febbraro +22
PEN is an industrial polyester plastic which has become interesting for the physics community as a new type of plastic scintillator. PEN scintillates in the blue regime, which is i…
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…
Measurements of the Lifetime of Orthopositronium in the LAB-Based Liquid Scintillator of JUNO
Mario Schwarz, Sabrina M. Franke, Lothar Oberauer +3
Electron antineutrinos are detected in organic liquid scintillator based neutrino experiments by means of the inverse beta decay, producing both a positron and a neutron. The posit…
