Search for two-neutrino double electron capture in Ar with the DarkSide-50 detector
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +83
Two-neutrino double electron capture is a rare nuclear decay where two electrons are simultaneously captured from the atomic shells and two neutrinos are emitted. We report on the…
A new hybrid gadolinium nanoparticles-loaded polymeric material for neutron detection in rare event searches
20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +311
Experiments aimed at direct searches for WIMP dark matter require highly effective reduction of backgrounds and control of any residual radioactive contamination. In particular, ne…
Long-term temporal stability of the DarkSide-50 dark matter detector
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +142
The stability of a dark matter detector on the timescale of a few years is a key requirement due to the large exposure needed to achieve a competitive sensitivity. It is especially…
Directionality of nuclear recoils in a liquid argon time projection chamber
20k Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. Ahmad +264
The direct search for dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles (WIMP) is performed by detecting nuclear recoils (NR) produced in a target material from the W…
Search for dark matter annual modulation with DarkSide-50
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +142
Dark matter induced event rate in an Earth-based detector is predicted to show an annual modulation as a result of the Earth's orbital motion around the Sun. We searched for this m…
Search for low mass dark matter in DarkSide-50: the bayesian network approach
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +140
We present a novel approach for the search of dark matter in the DarkSide-50 experiment, relying on Bayesian Networks. This method incorporates the detector response model into the…
Measurement of isotopic separation of argon with the prototype of the cryogenic distillation plant Aria for dark matter searches
20k Collaboration
The Aria cryogenic distillation plant, located in Sardinia, Italy, is a key component of the DarkSide-20k experimental program for WIMP dark matter searches at the INFN Laboratori…
Study of cosmogenic activation above ground for the DarkSide-20k experiment
20k Collaboration
The activation of materials due to exposure to cosmic rays may become an important background source for experiments investigating rare event phenomena. DarkSide-20k, currently und…
