Scintillating bolometers based on ZnMoO and ZnMoO crystals to search for 02 decay of Mo (LUMINEU project): first tests at the Modane Underground Laboratory
D. V. Poda, E. Armengaud, Q. Arnaud +90
The technology of scintillating bolometers based on zinc molybdate (ZnMoO) crystals is under development within the LUMINEU project to search for 02 decay of Mo w…
Background studies for the EDELWEISS dark matter experiment
E. Armengaud, C. Augier, A. Benoît +55
The EDELWEISS-II collaboration has completed a direct search for WIMP dark matter using cryogenic Ge detectors (400 g each) and 384 kgdays of effective exposure. A cross-se…
Measurement and simulation of the muon-induced neutron yield in lead
L. Reichhart, A. Lindote, D. Yu. Akimov +36
A measurement is presented of the neutron production rate in lead by high energy cosmic-ray muons at a depth of 2850 m water equivalent (w.e.) and a mean muon energy of 260 GeV. Th…
Position Reconstruction in a Dual Phase Xenon Scintillation Detector
V. N. Solovov, V. A. Belov, D. Yu. Akimov +33
We studied the application of statistical reconstruction algorithms, namely maximum likelihood and least squares methods, to the problem of event reconstruction in a dual phase liq…
Performance data from the ZEPLIN-III second science run
P. Majewski, V. N. Solovov, D. Yu. Akimov +32
ZEPLIN-III is a two-phase xenon direct dark matter experiment located at the Boulby Mine (UK). After its first science run in 2008 it was upgraded with: an array of low background…
Single electron emission in two-phase xenon with application to the detection of coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering
E. Santos, B. Edwards, V. Chepel +34
We present an experimental study of single electron emission in ZEPLIN-III, a two-phase xenon experiment built to search for dark matter WIMPs, and discuss applications enabled by…
