ArDM: a ton-scale LAr detector for direct Dark Matter searches
ArDM Collaboration, A. Marchionni, C. Amsler +41
The Argon Dark Matter (ArDM-1t) experiment is a ton-scale liquid argon (LAr) double-phase time projection chamber designed for direct Dark Matter searches. Such a device allows to…
First operation of a double phase LAr Large Electron Multiplier Time Projection Chamber with a two-dimensional projective readout anode
A. Badertscher, A. Curioni, L. Knecht +6
We have previously reported on the construction and successful operation of the novel double phase Liquid Argon Large Electron Multiplier Time Projection Chamber (LAr LEM-TPC). Thi…
First results on light readout from the 1-ton ArDM liquid argon detector for dark matter searches
C. Amsler, A. Badertscher, V. Boccone +38
ArDM-1t is the prototype for a next generation WIMP detector measuring both the scintillation light and the ionization charge from nuclear recoils in a 1-ton liquid argon target. T…
Towards a liquid Argon TPC without evacuation: filling of a 6 m^3 vessel with argon gas from air to ppm impurities concentration through flushing
A. Curioni, L. Epprecht, A. Gendotti +11
In this paper we present a successful experimental test of filling a volume of 6 m with argon gas, starting from normal ambient air and reducing the impurities content down to…
The ArDM experiment
ArDM Collaboration, C. Amsler, A. Badertscher +51
The aim of the ArDM project is the development and operation of a one ton double-phase liquid argon detector for direct Dark Matter searches. The detector measures both the scintil…
