An optical cryostat for automated testing of silicon photomultipliers with vacuum-ultraviolet light
Lucas Darroch, Riya Rai, Soud Al Kharusi +7
We present the design and performance of an optical cryostat for testing silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) with vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) light. The cryostat operates within a temper…

Imaging of single barium atoms in a second matrix site in solid xenon for barium tagging in a Xe double beta decay experiment
M. Yvaine, D. Fairbank, J. Soderstrom +134
Neutrinoless double beta decay is one of the most sensitive probes for new physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. One of the isotopes under investigation is $^{136}…

Supernova electron-neutrino interactions with xenon in the nEXO detector
nEXO Collaboration, S. Hedges, S. Al Kharusi +144
Electron-neutrino charged-current interactions with xenon nuclei were modeled in the nEXO neutrinoless double- decay detector (~5 metric ton, 90% Xe, 10% Xe)…
