Study of radon removal performance of silver-ion exchanged zeolite from air for underground experiments
T. Sone, Y. Takeuchi, M. Matsukura +6
Radon is a common background source for underground astroparticle physics experiments and its removal is essential. In this study, we fabricated several prototype silver-ion exchan…
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…
Identification of Pb and Po in the bulk of copper samples with a low-background alpha particle counter
XMASS collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +39
We established a method to assay Pb and Po contaminations in the bulk of copper samples using a low-background alpha particle counter. The achieved sensitivity for…
Detectability of galactic supernova neutrinos coherently scattered on xenon nuclei in XMASS
XMASS Collaboration
The coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) plays a crucial role at the final evolution of stars. The detection of it would be of importance in astroparticle physics.…
Distillation of Liquid Xenon to Remove Krypton
K. Abe, J. Hosaka, T. Iida +45
A high performance distillation system to remove krypton from xenon was constructed, and a purity level of Kr/Xe = was achieved. This development is crucia…
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.) +…
