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…
Commissioning of miniBELEN-10A, a moderated neutron counter with a flat efficiency for thick-target neutron yields measurements
N Mont-Geli, A Tarifeño-Saldivia, L M Fraile +40
miniBELEN-10A is a modular and transportable moderated neutron counter with a nearly flat detection efficiency up to 8 MeV. The detector was designed to carry out measurements of (…
miniBELEN: a modular neutron counter for (alpha,n) reactions
N Mont-Geli, A Tarifeño-Saldivia, L M Fraile +38
miniBELEN is a modular and transportable neutron moderated counter with a nearly flat neutron detection efficiency up to 10 MeV. Modularity implies that the moderator can be reasse…
Measurement of the Argon Purity by ICP-MS and Results of the Analysis of the Gas Used for the MicroBooNE Experiment
R. Santorelli, A. I. Barrado Olmedo, E. Conde Vilda +3
Measuring the argon purity is critical for all Ar-based rare event research experiments. Mass spectrometry is typically used to assess the uranium and thorium contamination in samp…
Precision Measurement of the Specific Activity of Ar in Atmospheric Argon with the DEAP-3600 Detector
P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj, M. Alpízar-Venegas +147
The specific activity of the beta decay of Ar in atmospheric argon is measured using the DEAP-3600 detector. DEAP-3600, located 2 km underground at SNOLAB, uses a total of (…
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…
