Spectroscopic study of argon electroluminescence light with a wavelength-sensitive particle detector
R. Santorelli, V. Pesudo Fortes, G. Vera Díaz +5
We present a spectroscopic study of argon electroluminescence (EL) light in a gaseous time projection chamber (TPC). Using a compact detector equipped with photomultiplier tubes wi…
Measurement of the Argon Purity by ICP-MS and Results of the Analysis of the Gas Used for the MicroBooNE Experiment
R. Santorelli, A. I. Barrado Olmedo, E. Conde Vilda +3
Measuring the argon purity is critical for all Ar-based rare event research experiments. Mass spectrometry is typically used to assess the uranium and thorium contamination in samp…
Measurement of isotopic separation of argon with the prototype of the cryogenic distillation plant Aria for dark matter searches
20k Collaboration
The Aria cryogenic distillation plant, located in Sardinia, Italy, is a key component of the DarkSide-20k experimental program for WIMP dark matter searches at the INFN Laboratori…
Sensitivity projections for a dual-phase argon TPC optimized for light dark matter searches through the ionization channel
P. Agnes, I. Ahmad, S. Albergo +296
Dark matter lighter than 10 GeV/c encompasses a promising range of candidates. A conceptual design for a new detector, DarkSide-LowMass, is presented, based on the DarkSide-50…
Experimental study of the positive ion feedback from gas to liquid in a dual-phase argon chamber and measurement of the ion mobility in argon gas
Luciano Romero, Roberto Santorelli, Edgar Sánchez García +8
The dynamics of the positive ions created by particle interactions inside argon time projection chambers plays an important role in characterizing the next generation of massive de…
Separating Ar from Ar by cryogenic distillation with Aria for dark matter searches
DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, S. Albergo +309
The Aria project consists of a plant, hosting a 350 m cryogenic isotopic distillation column, the tallest ever built, which is currently in the installation phase in a mine shaft a…
