Detection of scintillation light in noble gases with wavelength-shifting optical fibers
S. R. Soleti, S. Torelli, G. MartÃnez-Lema +110
Wavelength-shifting (WLS) techniques enable particle detectors based on noble gases, whose scintillation light is predominantly emitted in the vacuum-ultraviolet. We investigate WL…
On the determination of the interaction time of GeV neutrinos in large argon gas TPCs
A. Saá-Hernández, D. González-DÃaz, J. MartÃn-Albo +15
Next-generation megawatt-scale neutrino beams open the way to studying neutrino-nucleus scattering using gaseous targets for the first time. This represents an opportunity to impro…
Measurement of Energy Resolution with the NEXT-White Silicon Photomultipliers
T. Contreras, B. Palmeiro, H. Almazán +107
The NEXT-White detector, a high-pressure gaseous xenon time projection chamber, demonstrated the excellence of this technology for future neutrinoless double beta decay searches us…
Fluorescence Imaging of Individual Ions and Molecules in Pressurized Noble Gases for Barium Tagging in Xe
NEXT Collaboration, N. Byrnes, E. Dey +112
The imaging of individual Ba ions in high pressure xenon gas is one possible way to attain background-free sensitivity to neutrinoless double beta decay and hence establish…
Discovering Long-lived Particles at DUNE
Pilar Coloma, Justo MartÃn-Albo, Salvador Urrea
Long-lived particles (LLPs) arise in many theories beyond the Standard Model. These may be copiously produced from meson decays (or through their mixing with the LLP) at neutrino f…
