Background stability and annual modulation test using PICOLON ultra-pure NaI(Tl) detector
PICOLON Collaboration, K. Kotera, D. Chernyak +20
The dark matter observation claimed by the DAMA/LIBRA experiment has been a long-standing puzzle within the particle physics community. NaI(Tl) crystals with radiopurity comparable…
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR experiment's construction, commissioning, and performance
N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo, I. J. Arnquist +108
Background: The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR , a modular array of isotopically enriched high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors, was constructed to demonstrate backgrounds low enough to ju…
Radiopurity of NaI(Tl) crystals for PICOLON dark matter experiment
K. Kotera, D. Chernyak, H. Ejiri +19
The dark matter observation claim by the DAMA/LIBRA collaboration has been a long-standing puzzle within the particle physics community. Efforts of other research groups to verify…
Energy Calibration of Germanium Detectors for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +53
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR was a search for neutrinoless double-beta decay () in the Ge isotope. It was staged at the 4850-foot level of the Sanford Underground Researc…
Charge Trapping and Energy Performance of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +55
P-type point contact (PPC) high-purity germanium detectors are an important technology in astroparticle and nuclear physics due to their superb energy resolution, low noise, and pu…
