Development of low radioactivity photomultiplier tubes for the XMASS-I detector

XMASS Collaboration, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +39

XMASS-I is a single-phase liquid xenon detector whose purpose is direct detection of dark matter. To achieve the low background requirements necessary in the detector, a new model…

A measurement of the time profile of scintillation induced by low energy gamma-rays in liquid xenon with the XMASS-I detector

XMASS Collaboration, H. Takiya, K. Abe +36

We report the measurement of the emission time profile of scintillation from gamma-ray induced events in the XMASS-I 832 kg liquid xenon scintillation detector. Decay time constant…

Detectability of galactic supernova neutrinos coherently scattered on xenon nuclei in XMASS

XMASS Collaboration

The coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) plays a crucial role at the final evolution of stars. The detection of it would be of importance in astroparticle physics.…

XMASS detector

K. Abe, K. Hieda, K. Hiraide +45

The XMASS project aims to detect dark matter, pp and Be solar neutrinos, and neutrinoless double beta decay using ultra pure liquid xenon. The first phase of the XMASS experi…

Scintillation-only Based Pulse Shape Discrimination for Nuclear and Electron Recoils in Liquid Xenon

K. Ueshima, K. Abe, K. Hiraide +34

In a dedicated test setup at the Kamioka Observatory we studied pulse shape discrimination (PSD) in liquid xenon (LXe) for dark matter searches. PSD in LXe was based on the observa…

Distillation of Liquid Xenon to Remove Krypton

K. Abe, J. Hosaka, T. Iida +45

A high performance distillation system to remove krypton from xenon was constructed, and a purity level of Kr/Xe = was achieved. This development is crucia…
