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…
Measurement of the Ar specific activity in atmospheric argon with DArT at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory
P. Agnes, H. O. Back, S. Bharat +41
We report the measurement of the Ar specific activity of atmospheric argon using DArT, a low-background single-phase liquid-argon detector read out by cryogenic silicon phot…
Spectroscopic study of argon electroluminescence light with a wavelength-sensitive particle detector
R. Santorelli, V. Pesudo Fortes, G. Vera Díaz +5
We present a spectroscopic study of argon electroluminescence (EL) light in a gaseous time projection chamber (TPC). Using a compact detector equipped with photomultiplier tubes wi…
Environmental -Ray Flux in Hall C at LNGS and Its Correlation with Radon Activity
L. Luzzi, R. Santorelli, G. Zuzel +8
We report a comprehensive measurement of the environmental -ray flux in Hall C of the Gran Sasso National Laboratory. A spatial mapping of the radiation was carried out using a…
The Darkside-20k Data Acquisition System
Fabio Acerbi, Pushparaj Adhikari, Paolo Agnes +289
DarkSide-20k is a WIMP search experiment using liquid argon as a target, designed to perform a background-free search for dark matter with unprecedented sensitivity, and is current…
