Cryogenic characterisation of the FBK NUV-HD-cryo Silicon Photomultipliers for the DarkSide-20k dark matter experiment

F. Acerbi, P. Adhikari, P. Agnes +298

Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) are highly promising detectors for dark matter searches due to their uniform response, scalability to large target masses, and compatib…

First Nuclear Ultra-Heavy Dark Matter Search in Argon Time Projection Chambers with the DarkSide-50 Experiment

P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +125

We report the first search for nuclear ultra-heavy dark matter (UHDM) in a dual-phase liquid argon time projection chamber using the DarkSide-50 experiment. Unlike conventional wea…

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…

Characterization of spurious-electron signals in the double-phase argon TPC of the DarkSide-50 experiment

50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. Albuquerque +144

Spurious-electron signals in dual-phase noble liquid time projection chambers have been observed in both xenon and argon Time Projection Chambers (TPCs). This paper presents the fi…
