First Nuclear Ultra-Heavy Dark Matter Search in Argon Time Projection Chambers with the DarkSide-50 Experiment

P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +125

We report the first search for nuclear ultra-heavy dark matter (UHDM) in a dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber using the DarkSide-50 experiment. Unlike conventional wea…

Characterization of spurious-electron signals in the double-phase argon TPC of the DarkSide-50 experiment

50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque +144

Spurious-electron signals in dual-phase noble-liquid time projection chambers have been observed in both xenon and argon Time Projection Chambers (TPCs). This paper presents the fi…
