Improving Photoelectron Counting and Particle Identification in Scintillation Detectors with Bayesian Techniques
M. Akashi-Ronquest, P. -A. Amaudruz, M. Batygov +79
Many current and future dark matter and neutrino detectors are designed to measure scintillation light with a large array of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). The energy resolution and…
A Dark Matter Search with MALBEK
G. K. Giovanetti, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +84
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR is an array of natural and enriched high purity germanium detectors that will search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of 76-Ge and perform a search…
Background Model for the Majorana Demonstrator
C. Cuesta, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +84
The Majorana Collaboration is constructing a system containing 40 kg of HPGe detectors to demonstrate the feasibility and potential of a future tonne-scale experiment capable of pr…
Testing the Ge detectors for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR
W. Xu, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +84
High purity germanium (HPGe) crystals will be used for the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR, where they serve as both the source and the detector for neutrinoless double beta decay. It is cru…
Removal of long-lived Rn daughters by electropolishing thin layers of stainless steel
R. W. Schnee, M. A. Bowles, R. Bunker +5
Long-lived alpha and beta emitters in the Rn decay chain on detector surfaces may be the limiting background in many experiments attempting to detect dark matter or neutrin…
Update on the MiniCLEAN Dark Matter Experiment
K. Rielage, M. Akashi-Ronquest, M. Bodmer +43
The direct search for dark matter is entering a period of increased sensitivity to the hypothetical Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). One such technology that is being ex…
