Energy Calibration and Performance of HPGe Detectors in the LEGEND-200 Experiment

The LEGEND Collaboration, H. Acharya, M. Agostini +259

This paper describes the energy scale procedures and germanium detectors performance in the LEGEND-200 experiment, a critical component for the first unblinding in the search for n…

Photoluminescence of resin-based solder flux residue under ultraviolet excitation from 120 nm to 310 nm

Anna Hurhina, Marjolein Troost, Andreas Leonhardt +1

Nuisance photoluminescence is a potential source of background in particle detectors that use noble liquids as target material for galactic dark matter particles and neutrinos. Liq…
