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…

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…

A new hybrid gadolinium nanoparticles-loaded polymeric material for neutron detection in rare event searches

20k Collaboration, F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari +311

Experiments aimed at direct searches for WIMP dark matter require highly effective reduction of backgrounds and control of any residual radioactive contamination. In particular, ne…

Search for dark matter annual modulation with DarkSide-50

50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +142

Dark matter induced event rate in an Earth-based detector is predicted to show an annual modulation as a result of the Earth's orbital motion around the Sun. We searched for this m…

Search for low mass dark matter in DarkSide-50: the bayesian network approach

50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +140

We present a novel approach for the search of dark matter in the DarkSide-50 experiment, relying on Bayesian Networks. This method incorporates the detector response model into the…
