Development of low-background photomultiplier tubes for liquid xenon detectors
XMASS Collaboration, K. Abe, Y. Chen +36
We successfully developed a new photomultiplier tube (PMT) with a three-inch diameter, convex-shaped photocathode, R13111. Its prominent features include good performance and ultra…
Development of an alpha-particle imaging detector based on a low radioactivity micro-time-projection chamber
H. Ito, T. Hashimoto, K. Miuchi +5
An important issue for rare-event-search experiments, such as the search for dark matter or neutrinoless double beta decay, is to reduce radioactivity of the detector materials and…
A measurement of the scintillation decay time constant of nuclear recoils in liquid xenon with the XMASS-I detector
XMASS Collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +35
We report an in-situ measurement of the nuclear recoil (NR) scintillation decay time constant in liquid xenon (LXe) using the XMASS-I detector at the Kamioka underground laboratory…
Development of low radioactivity photomultiplier tubes for the XMASS-I detector
XMASS Collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +39
XMASS-I is a single-phase liquid xenon detector whose purpose is direct detection of dark matter. To achieve the low background requirements necessary in the detector, a new model…
Scintillation yield of liquid xenon at room temperature
K. Ueshima, K. Abe, T. Iida +41
The intensity of scintillation light emission from liquid xenon at room temperature was measured. The scintillation light yield at 1 deg. was measured to be 0.64 +/- 0.02 (stat.) +…
