In-situ suppression of surface radon emanation using an HDPE barrier at the Stawell Underground Physics Laboratory (SUPL)
R. R. Marcelo Gregorio, K. Mintern-Lane, S. Rushbrook +5
Radon-induced backgrounds remain a limiting factor in low-background experiments conducted in underground laboratories. The enclosed nature of these laboratories can result in elev…
Summary of quality control (QC) of ATLAS18 production ITk strip sensors
P. Federičováa, A. Affolder, K. Affolder +38
To address the demanding operational requirements of the High-Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), the ATLAS experiment is replacing its current Inner Detector…
Direct in-chamber radon-220 (thoron) emanation measurements for rare-event physics experiments
R. R. Marcelo Gregorio, F. Dastgiri, A. Basharina-Freshville +7
Measuring radon emanation from detector materials is a key method for controlling radon, a significant background in rare-event physics experiments. Methods for measuring radon ema…
High Negative Ion Gain MMThGEM-Micromegas Detector for Directional Dark Matter Searches
A. G. McLean, S. Higashino, R. R. Marcelo Gregorio +2
Low pressure gaseous Negative Ion Time Projection Chambers (NITPCs) have been used previously by the DRIFT experiment to search for a directional Dark Matter (DM) signature. The ma…
