Determination of the Muon Lifetime in Se with the MONUMENT experiment
G. R. Araujo, D. Bajpai, L. Baudis +26
Ordinary muon capture provides a benchmark for the nuclear physics models of neutrinoless double beta decay under comparable momentum transfer conditions. The total capture strengt…
Rare multi-nucleon decays with the full data sets of the Majorana Demonstrator
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +39
The Majorana Demonstrator was an ultra-low-background experiment designed for neutrinoless double-beta decay () investigation in Ge. Located at the Sanford Underground…
An assay-based background projection for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR using Monte Carlo Uncertainty Propagation
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +53
The background index is an important quantity which is used in projecting and calculating the half-life sensitivity of neutrinoless double-beta decay () experiments. A novel…
Constraints on the decay of Ta
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +56
Ta is a rare nuclear isomer whose decay has never been observed. Its remarkably long lifetime surpasses the half-lives of all other known and electron capture decays d…
Experimental study of 13C(α,n)16O reactions in the Majorana Demonstrator calibration data
MAJORANA Collaboration, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +55
Neutron captures and delayed decays of reaction products are common sources of backgrounds in ultra-rare event searches. In this work, we studied C(O reactions in…
Search for charge nonconservation and Pauli exclusion principle violation with the Majorana Demonstrator
MAJORANA Collaboration, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +55
Charge conservation and the Pauli exclusion principle result from fundamental symmetries in the standard model of particle physics, and are typically taken as axiomatic. High-preci…
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR: A Search for Neutrinoless Double-beta Decay of Germanium-76
MAJORANA Collaboration, A. G. Schubert, E. Aguayo +90
The observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay would determine whether the neutrino is a Majorana particle and provide information on the absolute scale of neutrino mass. The MA…
Solubility, Light Output and Energy Resolution Studies of Molybdenum-Loaded Liquid Scintillators
V. M. Gehman, P. J. Doe, R. G. H. Robertson +3
The search for neutrinoless double-beta decay is an important part of the global neutrino physics program. One double-beta decay isotope currently under investigation is 100Mo. In…
Multi-layer scintillation detector for the MOON double beta decay experiment: Scintillation photon responses studied by a prototype detector MOON-1
H. Nakamura, P. Doe, H. Ejiri +50
An ensemble of multi-layer scintillators is discussed as an option of the high-sensitivity detector Mo Observatory Of Neutrinos (MOON) for spectroscopic measurements of neutrino-le…
