Improvement and assessment of the radiopurity of Micromegas readout planes
Juan Castel, Susana Cebrian, Theopisti Dafni +17
Micromesh Gas Structures (Micromegas) as readout of gaseous Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) are being considered in experiments investigating rare phenomena, like the nuclear doubl…
Low-energy threshold demonstration for dark matter searches in TREX-DM with an Ar source produced at CNA HiSPANoS
J. Castel, S. Cebrián, T. Dafni +16
We report on the successful implementation of an Ar calibration source in the TREX-DM detector, a high-pressure time projection chamber designed for low-mass dark matter sea…
The International Axion Observatory (IAXO): case, status and plans. Input to the European Strategy for Particle Physics
A. Arcusa, S. Ahyoune, K. Altenmuller +120
The International Axion Observatory (IAXO) is a next-generation axion helioscope designed to search for solar axions with unprecedented sensitivity. IAXO holds a unique position in…
COCOA: a compact Compton camera for astrophysical observation of MeV-scale gamma rays
LiquidO Collaboration, S. R. Soleti, J. J. Gómez-Cadenas +89
COCOA (COmpact COmpton cAmera) is a next-generation gamma-ray telescope designed for astrophysical observations in the MeV energy range. The detector comprises a scatterer volume e…
Using Micromegas detectors for direct dark matter searches: challenges and perspectives
K. Altenmueller, . Antolin, D. Calvet +27
Gas time projection chambers (TPCs) with Micromegas pixelated readouts are being used in dark matter searches and other rare event searches, due to their potential in terms of low…
Searching for WIMPs with TREX-DM: achievements and challenges
Juan F. Castel, Susana Cebrián, Theopisti Dafni +15
The TREX-DM detector, a low background chamber with microbulk Micromegas readout, was commissioned in the underground laboratory of Canfranc (LSC) in 2018. Since then, data taking…
