Measurement of the distribution of Bi depositions on calibration sources for SuperNEMO
R. Arnold, C. Augier, A. S. Barabash +97
The SuperNEMO experiment will search for neutrinoless double-beta decay (), and study the Standard-Model double-beta decay process (). The SuperNEMO technology can meas…
Search for the double-beta decay of 82Se to the excited states of 82Kr with NEMO-3
3 collaboration, C. Augier, A. S. Barabash +104
The double-beta decay of 82Se to the 0+1 excited state of 82Kr has been studied with the NEMO-3 detector using 0.93 kg of enriched 82Se measured for 4.75 y, corresponding to an exp…
Spectral Characterization and Modeling of Wavelength-shifting Fibers
R. B. Pahlka, G. Elpers, J. Huang +2
We have constructed a detailed software model of photon transport in clear and wavelength shifting polystyrene optical fibers based on the GEANT4 framework. We validate the model w…
Calorimeter development for the SuperNEMO double beta decay experiment
A. S. Barabash, A. Basharina-Freshville, S. Blot +95
SuperNEMO is a double- decay experiment, which will employ the successful tracker-calorimeter technique used in the recently completed NEMO-3 experiment. SuperNEMO will implemen…
The BiPo-3 detector for the measurement of ultra low natural radioactivities of thin materials
A. S. Barabash, A. Basharina-Freshville, E. Birdsall +93
The BiPo-3 detector, running in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory (Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc, LSC, Spain) since 2013, is a low-radioactivity detector dedicated to measu…
Scalability, scintillation readout and charge drift in a kilogram scale solid xenon particle detector
J. Yoo, H. Cease, W. F. Jaskierny +5
We report a demonstration of the scalability of optically transparent xenon in the solid phase for use as a particle detector above a kilogram scale. We employ a liquid nitrogen co…
Results of the BiPo-1 prototype for radiopurity measurements for the SuperNEMO double beta decay source foils
J. Argyriades, R. Arnold, C. Augier +86
The development of BiPo detectors is dedicated to the measurement of extremely high radiopurity in Tl and Bi for the SuperNEMO double beta decay source foils. A mod…
Spectral modeling of scintillator for the NEMO-3 and SuperNEMO detectors
J. Argyriades, R. Arnold, C. Augier +90
We have constructed a GEANT4-based detailed software model of photon transport in plastic scintillator blocks and have used it to study the NEMO-3 and SuperNEMO calorimeters employ…
