Ultra-trace analysis of 40K in organic liquid scintillators
A. Barresi, D. Chiesa, D. Merli +64
Rare-event searches require exceptionally low background levels, motivating the development of increasingly sophisticated screening methods to push sensitivity limits. Liquid scint…
Ultra-trace analysis of U and Th in organic liquid scintillators with high sensitivity
A. Barresi, D. Chiesa, D. Merli +63
Rare event searches demand extremely low background levels, necessitating ever-advancing screening techniques to enhance sensitivity. Liquid scintillators are highly attractive as…
First Results on the Search for Lepton Number Violating Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay with the LEGEND-200 Experiment
H. Acharya, N. Ackermann, M. Agostini +256
The LEGEND collaboration is searching for neutrinoless double beta () decay by operating high-purity germanium detectors enriched in Ge in a low-background liquid a…
Search for the in-situ production of Ge in the GERDA neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment
M. Agostini, A. Alexander, G. Araujo +108
The beta decay of Ge and Ge, both produced by neutron capture on Ge, is a potential background for Germanium based neutrinoless double-beta decay sea…
Interpretable machine learning approach for electron antineutrino selection in a large liquid scintillator detector
A. Gavrikov, V. Cerrone, A. Serafini +65
Several neutrino detectors, KamLAND, Daya Bay, Double Chooz, RENO, and the forthcoming large-scale JUNO, rely on liquid scintillator to detect reactor antineutrino interactions. In…
