The nEXO Radioassay Program
R. MacLellan, P. Acharya, B. Aharmim +148
Material radioactivity compilations, such as the one presented here, are important enablers of science. They are useful for the selection of radiopure materials used in the design…
Design of a high voltage delivery system for noble liquid time projection chambers
R. Saldanha, L. Pagani, E. Angelico +129
Noble liquid time projection chambers (TPCs) are a leading technology in the detection of ionizing radiation, particularly in applications such as accelerator neutrino physics, dar…
Ultra-sensitive radon assay using an electrostatic chamber in a recirculating system
nEXO Collaboration, A. Anker, P. A. Breur +138
Rare event searches such as neutrinoless double beta decay and Weakly Interacting Massive Particle detection require ultra-low background detectors. Radon contamination is a signif…
The DAMIC-M Low Background Chamber
I. Arnquist, N. Avalos, P. Bailly +66
The DArk Matter In CCDs at Modane (DAMIC-M) experiment is designed to search for light dark matter (m<10\,GeV/c) at the Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane (LSM) in France. D…
