Measurement of the Neutron Cross Section on Argon Between 95 and 720 MeV

S. Martynenko, B. Bhandari, J. Bian +72

We report an extended measurement of the neutron cross section on argon in the energy range of 95-720 MeV. The measurement was obtained with a 4.3-hour exposure of the Mini-CAPTAIN…

Alpha Backgrounds for HPGe Detectors in Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay Experiments

R. A. Johnson, T. H. Burritt, S. R. Elliott +3

The Majorana Experiment will use arrays of enriched HPGe detectors to search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of 76Ge. Such a decay, if found, would show lepton-number violat…

The Majorana experiment: an ultra-low background search for neutrinoless double-beta decay

D. G. Phillips, E. Aguayo, F. T. Avignone +86

The observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay would resolve the Majorana nature of the neutrino and could provide information on the absolute scale of the neutrino mass. The in…
