Energy Calibration and Performance of HPGe Detectors in the LEGEND-200 Experiment
The LEGEND Collaboration, H. Acharya, M. Agostini +259
This paper describes the energy scale procedures and germanium detectors performance in the LEGEND-200 experiment, a critical component for the first unblinding in the search for n…
First Results on the Search for Lepton Number Violating Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay with the LEGEND-200 Experiment
H. Acharya, N. Ackermann, M. Agostini +256
The LEGEND collaboration is searching for neutrinoless double beta () decay by operating high-purity germanium detectors enriched in Ge in a low-background liquid a…
Search for the in-situ production of Ge in the GERDA neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment
M. Agostini, A. Alexander, G. Araujo +108
The beta decay of Ge and Ge, both produced by neutron capture on Ge, is a potential background for Germanium based neutrinoless double-beta decay sea…
Demonstration of the light collection stability of a PEN-based wavelength shifting reflector in a tonne scale liquid argon detector
V. Gupta, G. R. Araujo, M. Babicz +18
Liquid argon detectors rely on wavelength shifters for efficient detection of scintillation light. The current standard is tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB), but it is challenging to ins…
