New candidate polymeric wavelength shifters for noble liquid detectors
M. Kuźniak, S. Choudhary, S. Pawłowski +8
Polymeric wavelength shifters are of particular interest for large liquid argon detectors. Inspired by the success of polyethylene naphthalate (PEN), other new polymers exhibiting…
Position Reconstruction in the DEAP-3600 Dark Matter Search Experiment
The DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +162
In the DEAP-3600 dark matter search experiment, precise reconstruction of the positions of scattering events in liquid argon is key for background rejection and defining a fiducial…
Direct Measurement of the Ar Half-life from 3.4 Years of Data with the DEAP-3600 Detector
DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +114
The half-life of Ar is measured using the DEAP-3600 detector located 2 km underground at SNOLAB. Between 2016 and 2020, DEAP-3600 used a target mass of (3269 24) kg of…
Demonstration of the light collection stability of a PEN-based wavelength shifting reflector in a tonne scale liquid argon detector
V. Gupta, G. R. Araujo, M. Babicz +18
Liquid argon detectors rely on wavelength shifters for efficient detection of scintillation light. The current standard is tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB), but it is challenging to ins…
Production of GEM-like structures using laser-cutting techniques
L. M. Ramos, A. F. V. Cortez, M. Kuźniak +5
To enhance the ionization yield of liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPC) used in dark matter and neutrino experiments it was proposed the use of dopants in LAr, with ioniz…
Relative Measurement and Extrapolation of the Scintillation Quenching Factor of -Particles in Liquid Argon using DEAP-3600 Data
DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, M. Alpízar-Venegas +101
The knowledge of scintillation quenching of -particles plays a paramount role in understanding -induced backgrounds and improving the sensitivity of liquid argon-based direct…
