The ionization yield in a methane-filled spherical proportional counter
M. M. Arora, L. Balogh, C. Beaufort +40
Spherical proportional counters (SPCs) are gaseous particle detectors sensitive to single ionization electrons in their target media, with large detector volumes and low background…
Measurements of the ionization efficiency of protons in methane
G Collaboration, L. Balogh, C. Beaufort +40
The amount of energy released by a nuclear recoil ionizing the atoms of the active volume of detection appears "quenched" compared to an electron of the same kinetic energy. This d…
Quenching factor measurements of neon nuclei in neon gas
L. Balogh, C. Beaufort, A. Brossard +47
The NEWS-G collaboration uses Spherical Proportional Counters (SPCs) to search for weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs). In this paper, we report the first measurements of…
Copper electroplating for background suppression in the NEWS-G experiment
G Collaboration, L. Balogh, C. Beaufort +47
New Experiments with Spheres-Gas (NEWS-G) is a dark matter direct detection experiment that will operate at SNOLAB (Canada). Similar to other rare-event searches, the materials use…
A resistive ACHINOS multi-anode structure with DLC coating for spherical proportional counters
I. Giomataris, M. Gros, I. Katsioulas +9
The spherical proportional counter is a gaseous detector used in a variety of applications, including direct dark matter and neutrino-less double beta decay searches. The ACHINOS m…
Precision laser-based measurements of the single electron response of SPCs for the NEWS-G light dark matter search experiment
G Collaboration, Q. Arnaud, J. -P. Bard +36
Spherical Proportional Counters (SPCs) are a novel gaseous detector technology employed by the NEWS-G low-mass dark matter search experiment for their high sensitivity to single el…
