Cryogenic characterisation of the FBK NUV-HD-cryo Silicon Photomultipliers for the DarkSide-20k dark matter experiment
F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +298
Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) are highly promising detectors for dark matter searches due to their uniform response, scalability to large target masses, and compatib…
Search for two-neutrino double electron capture in Ar with the DarkSide-50 detector
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +83
Two-neutrino double electron capture is a rare nuclear decay where two electrons are simultaneously captured from the atomic shells and two neutrinos are emitted. We report on the…
The Darkside-20k Data Acquisition System
Fabio Acerbi, Pushparaj Adhikari, Paolo Agnes +289
DarkSide-20k is a WIMP search experiment using liquid argon as a target, designed to perform a background-free search for dark matter with unprecedented sensitivity, and is current…
Enhancing European Cooperation in the Search for Dark Matter
Bernard Andrieu, Ties Behnke, Philip Bechtle +47
The search for dark matter is an exciting topic that is pursued in different communities over a wide range of masses and using a variety of experimental approaches. The result is a…
3Dπ: Three-Dimensional Positron Imaging, A Novel Total-Body PET Scanner Using Xenon-Doped Liquid Argon Scintillator
Azam Zabihi, Xinran Li, Alejandro Ramirez +9
Objective: This paper introduces a novel PET imaging methodology called 3-dimensional positron imaging (3Dπ), which integrates total-body (TB) coverage, time-of-flight (TOF) techno…
