Secondary scintillation yield of Xenon with sub-percent levels of CO2 additive: efficiently reducing electron diffusion in HPXe optical TPCs for rare-event detection
C. A. O. Henriques, E. D. C. Freitas, C. D. R. Azevedo +67
We have measured the electroluminescence (EL) yield of Xe-CO2 mixtures, with sub-percent CO2 concentrations. We demonstrate that the EL production is still high in these mixtures,…
Operation and first results of the NEXT-DEMO prototype using a silicon photomultiplier tracking array
The NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, F. I. G. Borges +75
NEXT-DEMO is a high-pressure xenon gas TPC which acts as a technological test-bed and demonstrator for the NEXT-100 neutrinoless double beta decay experiment. In its current config…
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…
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…
Design and characterization of the SiPM tracking system of NEXT-DEMO, a demonstrator prototype of the NEXT-100 experiment
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, M. Ball +86
NEXT-100 experiment aims at searching the neutrinoless double-beta decay of the Xe-136 isotope using a TPC filled with a 100 kg of high-pressure gaseous xenon, with 90% isotopic en…
NEXT-100 Technical Design Report (TDR). Executive Summary
NEXT Collaboration, V. Álvarez, F. I. G. M. Borges +84
In this Technical Design Report (TDR) we describe the NEXT-100 detector that will search for neutrinoless double beta decay (bbonu) in Xe-136 at the Laboratorio Subterraneo de Canf…
