The case for a directional dark matter detector and the status of current experimental efforts

S. Ahlen, N. Afshordi, J. B. R. Battat +109

We present the case for a dark matter detector with directional sensitivity. This document was developed at the 2009 CYGNUS workshop on directional dark matter detection, and conta…

NEXT, a HPGXe TPC for neutrinoless double beta decay searches

The NEXT Collaboration, F. Granena, T. Lux +61

We propose a novel detection concept for neutrinoless double-beta decay searches. This concept is based on a Time Projection Chamber (TPC) filled with high-pressure gaseous xenon,…

Energy resolution of alpha particles in a microbulk Micromegas detector at high pressure Argon and Xenon mixtures

T. Dafni, E. Ferrer-Ribas, I. Giomataris +5

The latest Micromesh Gas Amplification Structures (Micromegas) are achieving outstanding energy resolution for low energy photons, with values as low as 11% FWHM for the 5.9 keV li…

Search for 14.4 keV solar axions emitted in the M1-transition of 57Fe nuclei with CAST

CAST Collaboration, S. Andriamonje, S. Aune +58

We have searched for 14.4 keV solar axions or more general axion-like particles (ALPs), that may be emitted in the M1 nuclear transition of 57Fe, by using the axion-to-photon conve…

Flavour Separation of Helicity Distributions from Deep Inelastic Muon-Deuteron Scattering

COMPASS Collaboration, M. Alekseev

We present a LO evaluation of helicity densities of valence, Δu_v+Δd_v, non-strange sea, Δ\bar{u}+Δ\bar{d}, and strange quarks, Δs (assumed to be equal to Δ\bar{s}). They have been…

Search for solar axion emission from 7Li and D(p,gamma)3He nuclear decays with the CAST gamma-ray calorimeter

CAST Collaboration, S. Andriamonje, S. Aune +58

We present the results of a search for a high-energy axion emission signal from 7Li (0.478 MeV) and D(p,gamma)3He (5.5 MeV) nuclear transitions using a low-background gamma-ray cal…
