Muon tracking in a LiquidO opaque scintillator detector
LiquidO Collaboration, J. Apilluelo, L. Asquith +89
LiquidO is an innovative radiation detector concept. The core idea is to exploit stochastic light confinement in a highly scattering medium to self-segment the detector volume. In…
Optimization of the JUNO liquid scintillator composition using a Daya Bay antineutrino detector
Daya Bay, JUNO collaborations, : +646
To maximize the light yield of the liquid scintillator (LS) for the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a 20 t LS sample was produced in a pilot plant at Daya Bay. Th…
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) Experiment
The LZ Collaboration, D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof +379
We describe the design and assembly of the LUX-ZEPLIN experiment, a direct detection search for cosmic WIMP dark matter particles. The centerpiece of the experiment is a large liqu…
Measurement of the Gamma Ray Background in the Davis Cavern at the Sanford Underground Research Facility
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, S. K. Alsum +164
Deep underground environments are ideal for low background searches due to the attenuation of cosmic rays by passage through the earth. However, they are affected by backgrounds fr…
Identification of Radiopure Titanium for the LZ Dark Matter Experiment and Future Rare Event Searches
D. S. Akerib, C. W. Akerlof, D. Yu. Akimov +202
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment will search for dark matter particle interactions with a detector containing a total of 10 tonnes of liquid xenon within a double-vessel cryostat. Th…
Current Status and Future Prospects of the SNO+ Experiment
SNO+ Collaboration, :, S. Andringa +155
SNO+ is a large liquid scintillator-based experiment located 2km underground at SNOLAB, Sudbury, Canada. It reuses the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory detector, consisting of a 12m di…
