Rn emanation measurements for the XENON1T experiment
E. Aprile, J. Aalbers, F. Agostini +140
The selection of low-radioactive construction materials is of utmost importance for the success of low-energy rare event search experiments. Besides radioactive contaminants in the…
Solar neutrino physics with Borexino I
L. Ludhova, G. Bellini, J. Benziger +87
Borexino is a large-volume liquid scintillator detector installed in the underground halls of the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. After several years of construction,…
First evidence of pep solar neutrinos by direct detection in Borexino
The Borexino Collaboration
We observed, for the first time, solar neutrinos in the 1.0-1.5 MeV energy range. We measured the rate of pep solar neutrino interactions in Borexino to be [3.1+-0.6(stat)+-0.3(sys…
Discovery of underground argon with low level of radioactive 39Ar and possible applications to WIMP dark matter detectors
C. Galbiati, R. Purtschert
We report on the first measurement of 39Ar in argon from underground natural gas reservoirs. The gas stored in the US National Helium Reserve was found to contain a low level of 39…
