Development and Initial Performance of an Upgraded NaI(Tl) Crystal Encapsulation for COSINE-100U

Doohyeok Lee, Jae Young Cho, Chang Hyon Ha +23

The COSINE-100 experiment was designed to test the DAMA/LIBRA annual-modulation claim using low-background NaI(Tl) detectors. For the COSINE-100U upgrade, we developed a new crysta…

Performance study of 4-MU-loaded water for Cherenkov light detection

Pendo B. Nyanda, Gowoon Kim, Youngduk Kim +4

We report on R&D study to improve the photon detection efficiency of water Cherenkov detectors by doping ultra-pure water with 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU), a wavelength shifting a…

Upgrading the COSINE-100 Experiment for Enhanced Sensitivity to Low-Mass Dark Matter Detection

D. H. Lee, J. Y. Cho, C. Ha +23

The DAMA/LIBRA experiment has reported an annual modulation signal in NaI(Tl) detectors, which has been interpreted as a possible indication of dark matter interactions. However, t…

COSINE-100 Full Dataset Challenges the Annual Modulation Signal of DAMA/LIBRA

N. Carlin, J. Y. Cho, J. J. Choi +56

For over 25 years, the DAMA/LIBRA collaboration has claimed to observe an annual modulation signal, suggesting the existence of dark matter interactions. However, no experiment emp…

New Constraints on Axion-Like Particles with the NEON Detector at a Nuclear Reactor

Byung Ju Park, Jae Jin Choi, Eunju Jeon +17

We report new constraints on axion-like particles (ALPs) using data from the NEON experiment, which features a 16.7 kg of NaI(Tl) target located 23.7 meters from a 2.8 GW thermal p…

An induced annual modulation signature in COSINE-100 data by DAMA/LIBRA's analysis method

G. Adhikari, N. Carlin, J. J. Choi +54

The DAMA/LIBRA collaboration has reported the observation of an annual modulation in the event rate that has been attributed to dark matter interactions over the last two decades.…

Strong constraints from COSINE-100 on the DAMA dark matter results using the same sodium iodide target

G. Adhikari, E. Barbosa de Souza, N. Carlin +50

We present new constraints on dark matter interactions using 1.7 years of COSINE-100 data. The COSINE-100 experiment, consisting of 106 kg of tallium-doped sodium iodide (NaI(Tl))…
