Lifetime measurements of 214Po and 212Po with the CTF liquid scintillator detector at LNGS
Borexino Collaboration, G. Bellini, J. Benziger +92
We have studied the alpha decays of 214Po into 210Pb and of 212Po into 208Pb tagged by the coincidence with the preceding beta decays from 214Bi and 212Bi, respectively. The employ…
Borexino calibrations: Hardware, Methods, and Results
Borexino collaboration, H. Back, G. Bellini +93
Borexino was the first experiment to detect solar neutrinos in real-time in the sub-MeV region. In order to achieve high precision in the determination of neutrino rates, the detec…
First Large Scale Production of Low Radioactivity Argon From Underground Sources
H. O. Back, F. Calaprice, C. Condon +10
We report on the first large-scale production of low radioactivity argon from underground gas wells. Low radioactivity argon is of general interest, in particular for the construct…
A Study of the Residual 39Ar Content in Argon from Underground Sources
J. Xu, F. Calaprice, C. Galbiati +15
The discovery of argon from underground sources with significantly less 39Ar than atmospheric argon was an important step in the development of direct-detection dark matter experim…
Light Yield in DarkSide-10: a Prototype Two-phase Liquid Argon TPC for Dark Matter Searches
T. Alexander, D. Alton, K. Arisaka +119
As part of the DarkSide program of direct dark matter searches using liquid argon TPCs, a prototype detector with an active volume containing 10 kg of liquid argon, DarkSide-10, wa…
Search for Solar Axions Produced in Reaction with Borexino Detector
The Borexino Collaboration
A search for 5.5-MeV solar axions produced in the reaction was performed using the Borexino detector. The Compton conversion of axions to…
