Characterization of Aluminum Microwave SQUID Multiplexers for CENS Detection
James Amidei, Antoine Armatol, Corinne Augier +92
We present the design, fabrication, and characterization of an aluminum-based six-channel microwave SQUID multiplexer (MUX) prototype for transition-edge sensor (TES) readout i…
First observation of single beta decay of Zr
A. S. Barabash, S. Evseev, D. Filosofov +14
The single beta decay of Zr has been detected for the first time using a 211 cm low-background HPGe detector and an external source consisting of two samples of enriched…
First investigation of Zr samples enriched by the gas-centrifuge method for the use in rare-decay studies
D. Arefev, A. S. Barabash, M. De Jesus +21
For the first time, the isotope Zr has been produced by the gas-centrifuge method (enrichment is 88.28% and full mass of Zr is 179.816 g). The level of radionuclide i…
Application of a high-precision distributed uranium source for determining the effective mass and volume of a HPGe detector
A. S. Barabash, S. Evseev, D. Filosofov +10
A distributed uranium source with the accurately certified activity of 238U has been used to verify the effective mass of the HPGe detector intended for the νGeN neutrino experime…
Characterization of mini-CryoCube detectors from the Ricochet experiment commissioning at the Institut Laue-Langevin
Antoine Armatol, Corinne Augier, Louis Bailly-Salins +83
The Ricochet experiment aims to measure the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering process from antineutrinos emitted by a research nuclear reactor operated by the Institut L…
