Wavelength-Shifting Performance of Polyethylene Naphthalate Films in a Liquid Argon Environment
Y. Abraham, J. Asaadi, V. Basque +9
Liquid argon is commonly used as a detector medium for neutrino physics and dark matter experiments in part due to its copious scintillation light production in response to its exc…
Operation and characterization of a windowless gas jet target in high-intensity electron beams
B. S. Schlimme, S. Aulenbacher, P. Brand +54
A cryogenic supersonic gas jet target was developed for the MAGIX experiment at the high-intensity electron accelerator MESA. It will be operated as an internal, windowless target…
Design and Operation of a Windowless Gas Target Internal to a Solenoidal Magnet for Use with a Megawatt Electron Beam
S. Lee, R. Corliss, I. Friščić +37
A windowless hydrogen gas target of nominal thickness cm is an essential component of the DarkLight experiment, which is designed to utilize the megawatt electron…
Realization of a Large-Acceptance Faraday Cup for 3 MeV Electrons
R. Johnston, J. Bernauer, C. M. Cooke +12
The design, construction, installation, and testing of a Faraday Cup intended to measure the current of a 3 MeV, 1 microampere electron beam is described. Built as a current monito…
Improving Photoelectron Counting and Particle Identification in Scintillation Detectors with Bayesian Techniques
M. Akashi-Ronquest, P. -A. Amaudruz, M. Batygov +79
Many current and future dark matter and neutrino detectors are designed to measure scintillation light with a large array of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). The energy resolution and…
The OLYMPUS Internal Hydrogen Target
J. C. Bernauer, V. Carassiti, G. Ciullo +7
An internal hydrogen target system was developed for the OLYMPUS experiment at DESY, in Hamburg, Germany. The target consisted of a long, thin-walled, tubular cell within an alumin…
Focal-plane detector system for the KATRIN experiment
J. F. Amsbaugh, J. Barrett, A. Beglarian +48
The focal-plane detector system for the KArlsruhe TRItium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment consists of a multi-pixel silicon p-i-n-diode array, custom readout electronics, two supercon…
Update on the MiniCLEAN Dark Matter Experiment
K. Rielage, M. Akashi-Ronquest, M. Bodmer +43
The direct search for dark matter is entering a period of increased sensitivity to the hypothetical Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). One such technology that is being ex…
Design of the MiniCLEAN dark matter search veto detector subsystem
Robert Abruzzio, Benjamin Buck, Stephen Jaditz +3
This paper describes the design of the active muon veto subsystem for the MiniCLEAN dark matter direct detection experiment at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. The water-filled…
Calibration of Muon Reconstruction Algorithms Using an External Muon Tracking System at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
SNO Collaboration
To help constrain the algorithms used in reconstructing high-energy muon events incident on the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO), a muon tracking system was installed. The system…
The Forward GEM Tracker of STAR at RHIC
F. Simon, J. Balewski, R. Fatemi +11
The STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) is in the process of designing and constructing a forward tracking system…
Beam Performance of Tracking Detectors with Industrially Produced GEM Foils
Frank Simon, James Kelsey, Michael Kohl +7
Three Gas-Electron-Multiplier tracking detectors with an active area of 10 cm x 10 cm and a two-dimensional, laser-etched orthogonal strip readout have been tested extensively in p…
Triple GEM Detectors for the Forward Tracker in STAR
Frank Simon, James Kelsey, Michael Kohl +7
Future measurements of the flavor-separated spin structure of the proton via parity-violating W boson production at RHIC require an upgrade of the forward tracking system of the ST…
The HERMES Spectrometer
K. Ackerstaff
The HERMES experiment is collecting data on inclusive and semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of polarised positrons from polarised targets of H, D, and He. These data give in…
