IAXO - The International Axion Observatory
J. K. Vogel, F. T. Avignone, G. Cantatore +61
The International Axion Observatory (IAXO) is a next generation axion helioscope aiming at a sensitivity to the axion-photon coupling of a few 10^{-12} GeV^{-1}, i.e. 1-1.5 orders…
Near-Intrinsic Energy Resolution for 30 to 662 keV Gamma Rays in a High Pressure Xenon Electroluminescent TPC
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, F. I. G. M. Borges +75
We present the design, data and results from the NEXT prototype for Double Beta and Dark Matter (NEXT-DBDM) detector, a high-pressure gaseous natural xenon electroluminescent time…
In-situ calibration of a PMT inside a scintillation detector by means of primary scintillation detection
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, F. I. G. M. Borges +75
We have investigated the possibility of calibrating the PMTs of scintillation detectors, using the primary scintillation produced by X-rays to induce single photoelectron response…
Initial results of NEXT-DEMO, a large-scale prototype of the NEXT-100 experiment
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, F. I. G. M. Borges +75
NEXT-DEMO is a large-scale prototype of the NEXT-100 detector, an electroluminescent time projection chamber that will search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of Xe-136 using…
The NEXT-100 experiment for neutrinoless double beta decay searches (Conceptual Design Report)
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, M. Ball +80
We propose an EASY (Electroluminescent ApparatuS of high Yield) and SOFT (Separated Optimized FuncTion) time-projection chamber for the NEXT experiment, that will search for neutri…
A novel large-volume Spherical Detector with Proportional Amplification read-out
I. Giomataris, I. Irastorza, I. Savvidis +11
A new type of radiation detector based on a spherical geometry is presented. The detector consists of a large spherical gas volume with a central electrode forming a radial electri…
