The potential of discrimination methods in a high pressure xenon TPC for the search of the neutrinoless double-beta decay of Xe-136
F. J. Iguaz, F. Aznar, J. F. Castel +8
In the search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of Xe, a high pressure xenon time projection chamber (HPXe-TPC) has two advantages over liquid xenon TPCs: a better ene…
Micromegas for dark matter searches: CAST/IAXO & TREX-DM
J. G. Garza, S. Aune, J. F. Castel +14
The most compelling candidates for Dark Matter to day are WIMPs and axions. The applicability of gasesous Time Projection Chambers (TPCs) with Micromesh Gas Structures (Micromegas)…
TREX-DM: a low background Micromegas-based TPC for low-mass WIMP detection
F. J. Iguaz, J. G. Garza, F. Aznar +8
Dark Matter experiments are recently focusing their detection techniques in low-mass WIMPs, which requires the use of light elements and low energy threshold. In this context, we d…
Gaseous time projection chambers for rare event detection: Results from the T-REX project. I. Double beta decay
I. G. Irastorza, F. Aznar, J. Castel +13
As part of the T-REX project, a number of R&D and prototyping activities have been carried out during the last years to explore the applicability of gaseous Micromegas-read TPCs in…
Gaseous time projection chambers for rare event detection: Results from the T-REX project. II. Dark matter
I. G. Irastorza, F. Aznar, J. Castel +13

TREX-DM: a low-background Micromegas-based TPC for low-mass WIMP detection
F. J. Iguaz, J. G. Garza, F. Aznar +8
If Dark Matter is made of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) with masses below 20 GeV, the corresponding nuclear recoils in mainstream WIMP experiments are of energ…
