Radio Frequency and DC High Voltage Breakdown of High Pressure Helium, Argon, and Xenon
K. Woodruff, J. Baeza-Rubio, D. Huerta +91
Motivated by the possibility of guiding daughter ions from double beta decay events to single-ion sensors for barium tagging, the NEXT collaboration is developing a program of R&D…

Radiogenic backgrounds in the NEXT double beta decay experiment
NEXT Collaboration, P. Novella, B. Palmeiro +88
Natural radioactivity represents one of the main backgrounds in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay. Within the NEXT physics program, the radioactivity-induced background…

Demonstration of the event identification capabilities of the NEXT-White detector
NEXT Collaboration, P. Ferrario, J. M. Benlloch-Rodríguez +88
In experiments searching for neutrinoless double-beta decay, the possibility of identifying the two emitted electrons is a powerful tool in rejecting background events and therefor…
