First results of the NEXT-100 detector using Kr decays
NEXT Collaboration, G. Martínez-Lema, C. Hervés Carrete +113
The NEXT collaboration is investigating the double beta decay of Xe using high-pressure gas electroluminescent time projection chambers, which provide excellent energy reso…
High Voltage Delivery and Distribution for the NEXT-100 Time Projection Chamber
NEXT Collaboration, C. Adams, H. Almazán +105
A critical element in the realization of large liquid and gas time projection chambers (TPCs) is the delivery and distribution of high voltages into and around the detector. Such e…
Performance of an Optical TPC Geant4 Simulation with Opticks GPU-Accelerated Photon Propagation
NEXT Collaboration, I. Parmaksiz, K. Mistry +113
We investigate the performance of Opticks, a NVIDIA OptiX API 7.5 GPU-accelerated photon propagation tool compared with a single-threaded Geant4 simulation. We compare the simulati…
Design, characterization and installation of the NEXT-100 cathode and electroluminescence regions
NEXT Collaboration, K. Mistry, L. Rogers +107
NEXT-100 is currently being constructed at the Laboratorio Subterráneo de Canfranc in the Spanish Pyrenees and will search for neutrinoless double beta decay using a high-pressure…
Demonstration of Event Position Reconstruction based on Diffusion in the NEXT-White Detector
J. Haefner, K. E. Navarro, R. Guenette +108
Noble element time projection chambers are a leading technology for rare event detection in physics, such as for dark matter and neutrinoless double beta decay searches. Time proje…
NEXT-CRAB-0: A High Pressure Gaseous Xenon Time Projection Chamber with a Direct VUV Camera Based Readout
NEXT Collaboration, N. K. Byrnes, I. Parmaksiz +116
The search for neutrinoless double beta decay () remains one of the most compelling experimental avenues for the discovery in the neutrino sector. Electroluminescent gas-phas…
A Compact Dication Source for Ba Tagging and Heavy Metal Ion Sensor Development
K. E. Navarro, B. J. P. Jones, J. Baeza-Rubio +107
We present a tunable metal ion beam that delivers controllable ion currents in the picoamp range for testing of dry-phase ion sensors. Ion beams are formed by sequential atomic eva…
Reflectance and fluorescence characteristics of PTFE coated with TPB at visible, UV, and VUV as a function of thickness
J. Haefner, A. Fahs, J. Ho +100
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an excellent diffuse reflector widely used in light collection systems for particle physics experiments. In noble element systems, it is often coa…
Ba ion trapping by organic submonolayer: towards an ultra-low background neutrinoless double beta decay detector
P. Herrero-Gómez, J. P. Calupitan, M. Ilyn +112
If neutrinos are their own antiparticles, the otherwise-forbidden nuclear reaction known as neutrinoless double beta decay () can occur, with a characteristic lifetime which…
