A Background-Free Direction-Sensitive Neutron Detector2 A Background-Free Direction-Sensitive Neutron Detector
Alvaro Roccaro, H. Tomita, S. Ahlen +14
We show data from a new type of detector that can be used to determine neutron flux, energy distribution, and direction of neutron motion for both fast and thermal neutrons. Many n…
Transport properties of electrons in CF4
T. Caldwell, A. Roccaro, T. Sahin +17
Carbon-tetrafluoride (CF4) is used as a counting gas in particle detectors, but some of its properties that are of interest for large time-projection chambers are not well known. W…
DMTPC-10L: Direction-Sensitive Dark Matter Detector Prototype
D. Dujmic, P. Fisher, R. Lanza +13
The known direction of motion of dark matter particles relative to the Earth may be a key for their unambiguous identification even in the presence of backgrounds. We describe a pr…
A Measurement of Photon Production in Electron Avalanches in CF4
A. Kaboth, J. Monroe, S. Ahlen +13
This paper presents a measurement of the ratio of photon to electron production and the scintillation spectrum in a popular gas for time pro jection chambers, carbon tetrafluoride…
Observation of the 'head-tail' effect in nuclear recoils of low-energy neutrons
D. Dujmic, H. Tomita, M. Lewandowska +13
Directional detection of dark matter can provide unambiguous observation of dark matter interactions even in the presence of background. This article presents an experimental metho…
