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…

Dark Matter Search with the DEAP-3600 Detector using the Profile Likelihood Ratio Method

DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +122

We present here a search for WIMP dark matter using 790.8 live-days of data collected with 3269 kg of liquid argon (1266 kg fiducial) by the DEAP-3600 detector at SNOLAB, using the…

Characterisation of silicon photomultipliers in a dilution refrigerator down to 9.4 mK towards a cryogenic cosmic-ray muon veto system

DMC Collaboration, A. Kemp, S. Autti +30

We report the characterisation of a FBK NUV-HD-cryo silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) sensor operated in a 9.4 0.2 mK environment inside a dilution refrigerator, towards the dev…

Temperature-Dependent Photoluminescence of PEDOT:PSS for use as Transparent Electrodes in the DarkSide-20k Time Projection Chamber

Nicholas Swidinsky, Emma Ellingwood, Jonathan Hucker +7

Dual-phase time-projection chambers (TPCs) filled with noble elements are used for particle detection, with many focusing on rare-event searches. These detectors measure two signal…
