Scintillation efficiency of liquid argon in low energy neutron-argon scattering
W. Creus, Y. Allkofer, C. Amsler +4
Experiments searching for weak interacting massive particles with noble gases such as liquid argon require very low detection thresholds for nuclear recoils. A determination of the…
Study of nuclear recoils in liquid argon with monoenergetic neutrons
C. Regenfus, Y. Allkofer, C. Amsler +4
For the development of liquid argon dark matter detectors we assembled a setup in the laboratory to scatter neutrons on a small liquid argon target. The neutrons are produced mono-…
ArDM: a ton-scale LAr detector for direct Dark Matter searches
ArDM Collaboration, A. Marchionni, C. Amsler +41
The Argon Dark Matter (ArDM-1t) experiment is a ton-scale liquid argon (LAr) double-phase time projection chamber designed for direct Dark Matter searches. Such a device allows to…
First results on light readout from the 1-ton ArDM liquid argon detector for dark matter searches
C. Amsler, A. Badertscher, V. Boccone +38
ArDM-1t is the prototype for a next generation WIMP detector measuring both the scintillation light and the ionization charge from nuclear recoils in a 1-ton liquid argon target. T…
The ArDM experiment
ArDM Collaboration, C. Amsler, A. Badertscher +51
The aim of the ArDM project is the development and operation of a one ton double-phase liquid argon detector for direct Dark Matter searches. The detector measures both the scintil…
Evidence for -atoms with DIRAC
B. Adeva, L. Afanasyev, Y. Allkofer +77
We present evidence for the first observation of electromagnetically bound -pairs (-atoms) with the DIRAC experiment at the CERN-PS. The -atoms are produced by…
