Cosmogenic production of tritium in dark matter detectors
J. Amare, J. Castel, S. Cebrian +19
The direct detection of dark matter particles requires ultra-low background conditions at energies below a few tens of keV. Radioactive isotopes are produced via cosmogenic activat…
First proof of topological signature in the high pressure xenon gas TPC with electroluminescence amplification for the NEXT experiment
NEXT Collaboration, P. Ferrario, A. Laing +67
The NEXT experiment aims to observe the neutrinoless double beta decay of xenon in a high-pressure Xe136 gas TPC using electroluminescence (EL) to amplify the signal from ionizatio…
Accurate gamma and MeV-electron track reconstruction with an ultra-low diffusion Xenon/TMA TPC at 10 atmospheres
Diego Gonzalez-Diaz, V. Alvarez, F. I. G. Borges +80
We report the performance of a 10 atm Xenon/trimethylamine time projection chamber (TPC) for the detection of X-rays (30 keV) and gamma-rays (0.511-1.275 MeV) in conjunction with t…
New solar axion search in CAST with He filling
M. Arik, S. Aune, K. Barth +60
The CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) searches for conversion in the 9 T magnetic field of a refurbished LHC test magnet that can be directed toward the Sun. Two parallel m…
Radiopurity assessment of the tracking readout for the NEXT double beta decay experiment
S. Cebrián, J. Pérez, I. Bandac +68
The Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon Time-Projection Chamber (NEXT) is intended to investigate the neutrinoless double beta decay of 136Xe, which requires a severe suppression of p…
Present status and future perspectives of the NEXT experiment
The NEXT Collaboration, J. J. Gómez-Cadenas, V. Álvarez +74
NEXT is an experiment dedicated to neutrinoless double beta decay searches in xenon. The detector is a TPC, holding 100 kg of high-pressure xenon enriched in the Xe isotope…
