Compact, directional neutron detectors capable of high-resolution nuclear recoil imaging
I. Jaegle, P. M. Lewis, M. Garcia-Sciveres +10
We report on the design, production, and performance of compact 40-cm Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) that detect fast neutrons by measuring the three-dimensional (3D) ionizati…
3-D Tracking of Nuclear Recoils in a Miniature Time Projection Chamber
S. E. Vahsen, M. T. Hedges, I. Jaegle +6
The three-dimensional (3-D) reconstruction of nuclear recoils is of interest for directional detection of fast neutrons and for direction-sensitive searches for weakly interacting…
Recent Progress on D -- The Directional Dark Matter Detector
Steven Ross
Direction-sensitive WIMP dark matter searches may help overcome the challenges faced by direct dark matter detection experiments. In particular, directional detectors should be abl…
Charge-Focusing Readout of Time Projection Chambers
S. J. Ross, M. T. Hedges, I. Jaegle +5
Time projection chambers (TPCs) have found a wide range of applications in particle physics, nuclear physics, and homeland security. For TPCs with high-resolution readout, the read…
Simulation of the Directional Dark Matter Detector (D3) and Directional Neutron Observer (DiNO)
I. Jaegle, H. Feng, S. Ross +2
Preliminary simulation and optimization studies of the Directional Dark Matter Detector and the Directional Neutron Observer are presented. These studies show that the neutron inte…
The Directional Dark Matter Detector
S. E. Vahsen, H. Feng, M. Garcia-Sciveres +7
Gas-filled Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) with Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) and pixels appear suitable for direction-sensitive WIMP dark matter searches. We present the backgro…
