Search for Zero-Neutrino Double Beta Decay in 76Ge with the Majorana Demonstrator
C. E. Aalseth, N. Abgrall, E. Aguayo +126
The \MJ\ Collaboration is operating an array of high purity Ge detectors to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay in Ge. The \MJ\ \DEM\ comprises 44.1~kg of Ge detectors…
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…
Measurement of the elastic scattering cross section of neutrons from argon and neon
S. MacMullin, M. Kidd, R. Henning +3
Background: The most significant source of background in direct dark matter searches are neutrons that scatter elastically from nuclei in the detector's sensitive volume. Experimen…
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR: Progress towards showing the feasibility of a tonne-scale 76Ge neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment
P. Finnerty, E. Aguayo, M. Amman +80
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR will search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of the 76Ge isotope with a mixed array of enriched and natural germanium detectors. The observation of…
Neutron-induced gamma-ray production cross sections for the first excited-state transitions in Ne-20 and Ne-22
S. MacMullin, M. Boswell, M. Devlin +8
Background: Neutron-induced reactions are a significant concern for experiments that require extremely low levels of radioactive backgrounds. Measurements of gamma-ray production c…
Partial gamma-ray production cross sections for (n,xng) reactions in natural argon from 1 - 30 MeV
S. MacMullin, M. Boswell, M. Devlin +8
Background: Neutron-induced backgrounds are a significant concern for experiments that require extremely low levels of radioactive backgrounds such as direct dark matter searches a…
