Direct observation of avalanche scintillations in a THGEM-based two-phase Ar avalanche detector using Geiger-mode APD
A. Bondar, A. Buzulutskov, A. Grebenuk +4
A novel concept of optical signal recording in two-phase avalanche detectors, with Geiger-mode Avalanche Photodiodes (G-APD) is described. Avalanche-scintillation photons were meas…
The ZEPLIN-III Anti-Coincidence Veto Detector
D. Yu. Akimov, H. M. Araujo, E. J. Barnes +34
The design, optimisation and construction of an anti-coincidence veto detector to complement the ZEPLIN-III direct dark matter search instrument is described. One tonne of plastic…
Limits on inelastic dark matter from ZEPLIN-III
D. Yu. Akimov, H. M. Araujo, E. J. Barnes +43
We present limits on the WIMP-nucleon cross section for inelastic dark matter derived from the 2008 run of ZEPLIN-III. Cuts, notably on scintillation pulse shape and scintillation-…
Geiger Mode APD performance in a cryogenic two-phase Ar avalanche detector based on THGEMs
A. Bondar, A. Buzulutskov, A. Grebenuk +4
Characteristic properties of a Geiger Mode APD (G-APD) in a THGEM-based cryogenic two-phase Ar avalanche detector were studied in view of potential applications in rare-event exper…
