Pulseshape discrimination against low-energy Ar-39 beta decays in liquid argon with 4.5 tonne-years of DEAP-3600 data

The DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +126

The DEAP-3600 detector searches for the scintillation signal from dark matter particles scattering on a 3.3 tonne liquid argon target. The largest background comes from Ar b…

The SNO+ Experiment

SNO+ Collaboration, :, V. Albanese +251

The SNO+ experiment is located 2 km underground at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Canada. A low background search for neutrinoless double beta () decay will be conducted using 780 tonnes…

Development, characterisation, and deployment of the SNO+ liquid scintillator

SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. R. Anderson +223

A liquid scintillator consisting of linear alkylbenzene as the solvent and 2,5-diphenyloxazole as the fluor was developed for the SNO+ experiment. This mixture was chosen as it is…

Copper electroplating for background suppression in the NEWS-G experiment

G Collaboration, L. Balogh, C. Beaufort +47

New Experiments with Spheres-Gas (NEWS-G) is a dark matter direct detection experiment that will operate at SNOLAB (Canada). Similar to other rare-event searches, the materials use…

The liquid-argon scintillation pulseshape in DEAP-3600

The DEAP collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +98

DEAP-3600 is a liquid-argon scintillation detector looking for dark matter. Scintillation events in the liquid argon (LAr) are registered by 255 photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), and p…

Electromagnetic Backgrounds and Potassium-42 Activity in the DEAP-3600 Dark Matter Detector

R. Ajaj, G. R. Araujo, M. Batygov +88

The DEAP-3600 experiment is searching for WIMP dark matter with a 3.3 tonne single phase liquid argon (LAr) target, located 2.1 km underground at SNOLAB. The experimental signature…
