Design Studies Of A Pulsed Quasimonoenergetic 2-keV Neutron Source For Calibration Of Low Threshold Dark Matter Detectors

L. Chaplinsky, S. Fiorucci, C. W. Fink +24

We describe design studies for a pulsed quasi-monoenergetic 2-keV neutron source for calibration of sub-keV nuclear recoils. Such a calibration is required for detectors sensitive…

A portable and high intensity 24 keV neutron source based on Sb-Be photoneutrons and an iron filter

A. Biekert, C. Chang, L. Chaplinsky +27

A portable monoenergetic 24 keV neutron source based on the Sb-Be photoneutron reaction and an iron filter has been constructed and characterized. The coincidence of th…

A backing detector for order-keV neutrons

A. Biekert, L. Chaplinsky, C. W. Fink +23

We have designed and tested a large-area (0.15~m) neutron detector based on neutron capture on \ce{^{6}Li}. The neutron detector design has been optimized for the purpose of ta…

Nuclear Recoil Scintillation Linearity of a High Pressure He Gas Detector

A. Biekert, S. A. Hertel, E. Huebler +6

We investigate scintillation linearity of a commercial high pressure He gas detector using monoenergetic 2.8 MeV neutrons from a deuterium-deuterium fusion neutron generator. T…

Thermal detection of single e-h pairs in a biased silicon crystal detector

R. K. Romani, P. L. Brink, B. Cabrera +11

We demonstrate that individual electron-hole pairs are resolved in a 1 cm by 4 mm thick silicon crystal (0.93 g) operated at 35 mK. One side of the detector is patterned…
