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…
Measurement of the scintillation resolution in liquid xenon and its impact for future segmented calorimeters
C. Romo-Luque, N. Salor-Iguiñiz, J. M. Benlloch-RodrÃguez +16
We report on a new measurement of the energy resolution that can be attained in liquid xenon when recording only the scintillation light. Our setup is optimized to maximize light c…
Demonstration of Sub-Percent Energy Resolution in the NEXT-100 Detector
NEXT Collaboration, M. Pérez Maneiro, M. MartÃnez-Vara +111
NEXT-100 is a high-pressure xenon time projection chamber with electroluminescent amplification, designed to operate with up to approximately 70.5 kg at 13.5 bar. It is the most re…
The NEXT-100 Detector
NEXT Collaboration, C. Adams, H. Almazán +114
The NEXT collaboration is dedicated to the study of double beta decays of Xe using a high-pressure gas electroluminescent time projection chamber. This advanced technology…
Cryogenic characterization of FBK NUV-HD-Cryo 3T SiPM sensors for the DUNE photon detection system
F. Acerbi, M. Andreotti, A. Balboni +93
The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a long-baseline neutrino experiment based in the USA and composed of a Near Detector (ND) complex at Fermi National Laboratory (F…
High Voltage Delivery and Distribution for the NEXT-100 Time Projection Chamber
NEXT Collaboration, C. Adams, H. Almazán +105
A critical element in the realization of large liquid and gas time projection chambers (TPCs) is the delivery and distribution of high voltages into and around the detector. Such e…
