Development of a low-alpha-emitting μ-PIC for NEWAGE direction-sensitive dark-matter search
Takashi Hashimoto, Kentaro Miuchi, Kiseki Nakamura +7
NEWAGE is a direction-sensitive dark-matter-search experiment that uses a micro-patterned gaseous detector, or μ-PIC, as the readout. The main background sources are α-rays from ra…
US Cosmic Visions: New Ideas in Dark Matter 2017: Community Report
Marco Battaglieri, Alberto Belloni, Aaron Chou +248
This white paper summarizes the workshop "U.S. Cosmic Visions: New Ideas in Dark Matter" held at University of Maryland on March 23-25, 2017.
Search for solar Kaluza-Klein axion by annual modulation with the XMASS-I detector
XMASS Collaboration, N. Oka, K. Abe +39
In theories with the large extra dimensions beyond the standard 4-dimensional spacetime, axions could propagate in such extra dimensions, and acquire Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitations.…
Identification of Pb and Po in the bulk of copper samples with a low-background alpha particle counter
XMASS collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +39
We established a method to assay Pb and Po contaminations in the bulk of copper samples using a low-background alpha particle counter. The achieved sensitivity for…
Discrimination of anisotropy in dark matter velocity distribution with directional detectors
Keiko I. Nagao, Tomonori Ikeda, Ryota Yakabe +2
Directional detection of dark matter has sensitivity for both recoil energy and direction of nuclear recoil. It opens the way to measure local velocity distribution of dark matter.…
Imaging Polarimeter for a Sub-MeV Gamma-Ray All-Sky Survey using an Electron-Tracking Compton Camera
Shotaro Komura, Atsushi Takada, Yoshitaka Mizumura +17
X-ray and gamma-ray polarimetry is a promising tool to study the geometry and the magnetic configuration of various celestial objects, such as binary black holes or gamma-ray burst…
