Studying the normal-fluid flow in Helium-II using metastable helium molecules

W. Guo, J. D. Wright, S. B. Cahn +2

We demonstrate that metastable helium molecules can be used as tracers to visualize the flow of the normal fluid in superfluid He using a laser-induced-fluorescence technique…

Metastable helium molecules as tracers in superfluid liquid He

W. Guo, J. D. Wright, S. B. Cahn +2

Metastable helium molecules generated in a discharge near a sharp tungsten tip operated in either pulsed mode or continuous field-emission mode in superfluid liquid He are im…

Measurement of the scintillation time spectra and pulse-shape discrimination of low-energy beta and nuclear recoils in liquid argon with DEAP-1

P. -A. Amaudruz, M. Batygov, B. Beltran +69

The DEAP-1 low-background liquid argon detector was used to measure scintillation pulse shapes of electron and nuclear recoil events and to demonstrate the feasibility of pulse-sha…
