Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex
J. I. Collar, Ivan Esteban, J. J. Gomez-Cadenas +8
The Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) currently delivers a 1 MW, 3 GeV proton beam to the Materials and Life Science Experimental Facility (MLF). Power is expected…
High Voltage Delivery and Distribution for the NEXT-100 Time Projection Chamber
NEXT Collaboration, C. Adams, H. Almazán +105
A critical element in the realization of large liquid and gas time projection chambers (TPCs) is the delivery and distribution of high voltages into and around the detector. Such e…
Performance of an Optical TPC Geant4 Simulation with Opticks GPU-Accelerated Photon Propagation
NEXT Collaboration, I. Parmaksiz, K. Mistry +113
We investigate the performance of Opticks, a NVIDIA OptiX API 7.5 GPU-accelerated photon propagation tool compared with a single-threaded Geant4 simulation. We compare the simulati…
Reconstructing neutrinoless double beta decay event kinematics in a xenon gas detector with vertex tagging
NEXT Collaboration, M. MartÃnez-Vara, K. Mistry +108
If neutrinoless double beta decay is discovered, the next natural step would be understanding the lepton number violating physics responsible for it. Several alternatives exist bey…
The Gaseous Prototype (GaP): a GanESS demonstrator
L. Larizgoitia, A. Simón, E. Oblak +6
The GanESS experiment will exploit the high-pressure noble gas time projection chamber technology to detect coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) at the European…
