Characterisation of an n-type segmented BEGe detector
I. Abt, A. Caldwell, B. Donmez +10
A four-fold segmented n-type point-contact "Broad Energy" high-purity germanium detector, SegBEGe, has been characterised at the Max-Planck-Institut für Physik in Munich. The main…
Background free search for neutrinoless double beta decay with GERDA Phase II
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +113
The Standard Model of particle physics cannot explain the dominance of matter over anti-matter in our Universe. In many model extensions this is a very natural consequence of neutr…
Limits on uranium and thorium bulk content in GERDA Phase I detectors
GERDA collaboration, M. Agostini, M. Allardt +113
Internal contaminations of U, U and Th in the bulk of high purity germanium detectors are potential backgrounds for experiments searching for neutrinoless d…
Limit on the Radiative Neutrinoless Double Electron Capture of Ar from GERDA Phase I
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +115
Neutrinoless double electron capture is a process that, if detected, would give evidence of lepton number violation and the Majorana nature of neutrinos. A search for neutrinoless…
Flux Modulations seen by the Muon Veto of the GERDA Experiment
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +112
The GERDA experiment at LNGS of INFN is equipped with an active muon veto. The main part of the system is a water Cherenkov veto with 66~PMTs in the water tank surrounding the GERD…
Search of Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay with the GERDA Experiment
Giovanni Benato
The Gerda experiment designed to search for the neutrinoless double beta decay in 76Ge has successfully completed the first data collection. No signal excess is found, and a lower…
decay of Ge into excited states with GERDA Phase I
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +113
Two neutrino double beta decay of Ge to excited states of Se has been studied using data from Phase I of the GERDA experiment. An array composed of up to 14 germanium…
Improvement of the Energy Resolution via an Optimized Digital Signal Processing in GERDA Phase I
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +111
An optimized digital shaping filter has been developed for the GERDA experiment which searches for neutrinoless double beta decay in 76Ge. The GERDA Phase I energy calibration data…
Results on decay with emission of two neutrinos or Majorons in Ge from GERDA Phase I
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, A. M. Bakalyarov +109
A search for neutrinoless decay processes accompanied with Majoron emission has been performed using data collected during Phase I of the GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) expe…
Production, characterization and operation of Ge enriched BEGe detectors in GERDA
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, E. Andreotti +109
The GERmanium Detector Array (GERDA) at the Gran Sasso Underground Laboratory (LNGS) searches for the neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) of Ge. Germanium detectors made o…
Results on neutrinoless double beta decay of 76Ge from GERDA Phase I
M. Agostini, M. Allardt, E. Andreotti +112
Neutrinoless double beta decay is a process that violates lepton number conservation. It is predicted to occur in extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. This Letter…
