Sensitivity to low-mass WIMPs with an improved liquid argon ionization response model within the DarkSide programme
F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +294
Dark matter detection experiments using liquid argon rely on a precise characterization of the ionization response to nuclear recoils, especially in the keV energy range relevant f…
Cryogenics and purification systems of the ICARUS T600 detector installation at Fermilab
F. Abd Alrahman, P. Abratenko, N. Abrego-Martinez +194
This paper describes the cryogenic and purification systems of the ICARUS T600 detector in its present implementation at the Fermi National Laboratory, Illinois, USA. The ICARUS T6…
Flow and thermal modelling of the argon volume in the DarkSide-20k TPC
20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +300
The DarkSide-20k dark matter experiment, currently under construction at LNGS, features a dual-phase time projection chamber (TPC) with a ~50 t argon target from an underground wel…
Benchmarking the design of the cryogenics system for the underground argon in DarkSide-20k
20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +315
DarkSide-20k (DS-20k) is a dark matter detection experiment under construction at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) in Italy. It utilises ~100 t of low radioactivity a…
The ENUBET monitored neutrino beam and its implementation at CERN
ENUBET collaboration, L. HaliÄ, F. Acerbi +74
The ENUBET project recently concluded the R&D for a site independent design of a monitored neutrino beam for high precision cross section measurements, in which the neutrino flux i…
DarkSide-20k sensitivity to light dark matter particles
20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +310
The dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber is presently one of the leading technologies to search for dark matter particles with masses below 10 GeV/c. This was demons…
