Modeling Backgrounds for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
C. R. Haufe, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +55
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR is a neutrinoless double-beta decay () experiment containing 30 kg of p-type point contact germanium detectors enriched to 88% in 76Ge and $\s…
Final Result of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR's Search for Neutrinoless Double- Decay in Ge
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +57
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR searched for neutrinoless double- decay () of Ge using modular arrays of high-purity Ge detectors operated in vacuum cryostats in a low-ba…
Search for solar axions via axion-photon coupling with the Majorana Demonstrator
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +55
Axions were originally proposed to explain the strong-CP problem in QCD. Through the axion-photon coupling, the Sun could be a major source of axions, which could be measured in so…
Experimental study of 13C(α,n)16O reactions in the Majorana Demonstrator calibration data
MAJORANA Collaboration, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +55
Neutron captures and delayed decays of reaction products are common sources of backgrounds in ultra-rare event searches. In this work, we studied C(O reactions in…
Search for charge nonconservation and Pauli exclusion principle violation with the Majorana Demonstrator
MAJORANA Collaboration, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +55
Charge conservation and the Pauli exclusion principle result from fundamental symmetries in the standard model of particle physics, and are typically taken as axiomatic. High-preci…
Search for Spontaneous Radiation from Wavefunction Collapse in the Majorana Demonstrator
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +51
The Majorana Demonstrator neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment comprises a 44 kg (30 kg enriched in ) array of -type, point-contact germanium detectors. W…
Signatures of muonic activation in the Majorana Demonstrator
I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash +55
Experiments searching for very rare processes such as neutrinoless double-beta decay require a detailed understanding of all sources of background. Signals from radioactive impurit…
Search for Zero-Neutrino Double Beta Decay in 76Ge with the Majorana Demonstrator
C. E. Aalseth, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +126
The \MJ\ Collaboration is operating an array of high purity Ge detectors to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay in Ge. The \MJ\ \DEM\ comprises 44.1~kg of Ge detectors…
First Results from CUORE: A Search for Lepton Number Violation via Decay of Te
CUORE Collaboration, C. Alduino, K. Alfonso +162
The CUORE experiment, a ton-scale cryogenic bolometer array, recently began operation at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. The array represents a significant advanc…
New limits on Bosonic Dark Matter, Solar Axions, Pauli Exclusion Principle Violation, and Electron Decay from the Majorana Demonstrator
N. Abgrall, I. J. Arnquist, F. T. Avignone +64
We present new limits on exotic keV-scale physics based on 478 kg d of MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR commissioning data. Constraints at the 90% confidence level are derived on bosonic dark…
Exploring the Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay in the Inverted Neutrino Hierarchy with Bolometric Detectors
D. R. Artusa, F. T. Avignone, O. Azzolini +116
Neutrinoless double beta decay (0nubb) is one of the most sensitive probes for physics beyond the Standard Model, providing unique information on the nature of neutrinos. In this p…
