Design, characterization and installation of the NEXT-100 cathode and electroluminescence regions
NEXT Collaboration, K. Mistry, L. Rogers +107
NEXT-100 is currently being constructed at the Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc in the Spanish Pyrenees and will search for neutrinoless double beta decay using a high-pressure…
NEXT-CRAB-0: A High Pressure Gaseous Xenon Time Projection Chamber with a Direct VUV Camera Based Readout
NEXT Collaboration, N. K. Byrnes, I. Parmaksiz +116
The search for neutrinoless double beta decay () remains one of the most compelling experimental avenues for the discovery in the neutrino sector. Electroluminescent gas-phas…
A Compact Dication Source for Ba Tagging and Heavy Metal Ion Sensor Development
K. E. Navarro, B. J. P. Jones, J. Baeza-Rubio +107
