Solar neutrino with Borexino: results and perspectives
O. Smirnov, G. Bellini, J. Benziger +87
Borexino is a unique detector able to perform measurement of solar neutrinos fluxes in the energy region around 1 MeV or below due to its low level of radioactive background. It wa…
First Results from the DarkSide-50 Dark Matter Experiment at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso
P. Agnes, T. Alexander, A. Alton +143
We report the first results of DarkSide-50, a direct search for dark matter operating in the underground Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) and searching for the rare nucle…
A. Fluka Study of Underground Cosmogenic Neutron Production
A Empl, E. V. Hungerford, R. Jasim +1
Neutrons produced by cosmic muon interactions are important contributors to backgrounds in underground detectors when searching for rare events. Typically such neutrons can dominat…
Measurement of Scintillation and Ionization Yield and Scintillation Pulse Shape from Nuclear Recoils in Liquid Argon
H. Cao, T. Alexander, A. Aprahamian +32
We have measured the scintillation and ionization yield of recoiling nuclei in liquid argon as a function of applied electric field by exposing a dual-phase liquid argon time proje…
Recent Borexino results and prospects for the near future
D. D'Angelo, G. Bellini, J. Benziger +85
The Borexino experiment, located in the Gran Sasso National Laboratory, is an organic liquid scintillator detector conceived for the real time spectroscopy of low energy solar neut…
