Energy, vertex, and time response of a LiquidO detector with an opaque-scintillator target to Compton-tagged electrons

LiquidO Collaboration, S. Katz, J. T. Moffatt +89

LiquidO detectors confine scintillation light near its point of production by stochastic scattering in an opaque medium and collect it with a lattice of wavelength-shifting (WLS) f…

First Experimental Bounds on Transverse Plasmon Solar Axions with ANAIS-112

S. J. Hollick, M. Giannotti, J. Ruz +16

Solar axion-like particles (ALPs) can be resonantly produced through the conversion of transverse plasmons in the magnetic field of the solar interior, introducing a production mec…

Muon tracking in a LiquidO opaque scintillator detector

LiquidO Collaboration, J. Apilluelo, L. Asquith +89

LiquidO is an innovative radiation detector concept. The core idea is to exploit stochastic light confinement in a highly scattering medium to self-segment the detector volume. In…

Combined Annual Modulation Dark Matter Search with COSINE-100 and ANAIS-112

N. Carlin, J. Y. Cho, J. J. Choi +71

The annual modulation signal, claimed to be consistent with dark matter as observed by DAMA/LIBRA in a sodium-iodide based detector, has persisted for over two decades. COSINE-100…

Towards a Robust Model-Independent Test of the DAMA/LIBRA Dark Matter Signal: ANAIS-112 Results with Six Years of Data

Julio Amaré, Jaime Apilluelo, Susana Cebrián +10

The nature of dark matter, which constitutes 27% of the Universe's matter-energy content, remains one of the most challenging open questions in physics. Over the past two decades,…

Characterization of a radiation detector based on opaque water-based liquid scintillator

LiquidO Collaboration

We present the characterization of a novel radiation detector based on an opaque water-based liquid scintillator. Opaque scintillators, also known as LiquidO, are made to be highly…

ANAIS-112 three years data: a sensitive model independent negative test of the DAMA/LIBRA dark matter signal

Iván Coarasa, Julio Amaré, Jaime Apilluelo +12

Weakly interacting massive particles (WIMPs) are well-motivated candidates for dark matter. One signature of galactic WIMPs is the annual modulation expected in a detector's intera…
