PICOLON dark matter search project
K. Fushimi, D. Chernyak, H. Ejiri +21
PICOLON (Pure Inorganic Crystal Observatory for LOw-energy Neutr(al)ino) aims to search for cosmic dark matter by high purity NaI(Tl) scintillator. We developed extremely pure NaI(…
New Methods and Simulations for Cosmogenic Induced Spallation Removal in Super-Kamiokande-IV
Kamiokande Collaboration, S. Locke, A. Coffani +215
Radioactivity induced by cosmic muon spallation is a dominant source of backgrounds for MeV neutrino interactions in water Cherenkov detectors. In particular, it…
First Gadolinium Loading to Super-Kamiokande
K. Abe, C. Bronner, Y. Hayato +212
In order to improve Super-Kamiokande's neutron detection efficiency and to thereby increase its sensitivity to the diffuse supernova neutrino background flux, 13 tons of $\rm Gd_2(…
Limits on astrophysical antineutrinos with the KamLAND experiment
S. Abe, S. Asami, A. Gando +66
We report on a search for electron antineutrinos () from astrophysical sources in the neutrino energy range 8.3 to 30.8 MeV with the KamLAND detector. In an exposure of 6.…
Dark matter search with high purity NaI(Tl) scintillator
K. Fushimi, Y. Kanemitsu, K. Kotera +21
A dark matter search project needs and extremely low background radiation detector since the expected event rate of dark matter is less than a few events in one year in one tonne o…
Search for Solar Flare Neutrinos with the KamLAND detector
S. Abe, S. Asami, A. Gando +65
We report the result of a search for neutrinos in coincidence with solar flares from the GOES flare database. The search was performed on a 10.8 kton-year exposure of KamLAND colle…
The nylon balloon for xenon loaded liquid scintillator in KamLAND-Zen 800 neutrinoless double-beta decay search experiment
Zen collaboration, Y. Gando, A. Gando +70
The KamLAND-Zen 800 experiment is searching for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of Xe by using Xe-loaded liquid scintillator. The liquid scintillator is enclosed…
Search for neutrinos in coincidence with gravitational wave events from the LIGO-Virgo O3a Observing Run with the Super-Kamiokande detector
Kamiokande collaboration, K. Abe, C. Bronner +209
The Super-Kamiokande detector can be used to search for neutrinos in time coincidence with gravitational waves detected by the LIGO-Virgo Collaboration (LVC). Both low-energy ($7-1…
A Search for Charged Excitation of Dark Matter with the KamLAND-Zen Detector
S. Abe, S. Asami, A. Gando +68
There are many theories where a dark matter particle is part of a multiplet with an electrically charged state. If WIMP dark matter () is accompanied by a charged excited st…
Search for Tens of MeV Neutrinos associated with Gamma-Ray Bursts in Super-Kamiokande
Kamiokande Collaboration, A. Orii, K. Abe +216
A search for neutrinos produced in coincidence with Gamma-Ray Bursts(GRB) was conducted with the Super-Kamiokande (SK) detector. Between December 2008 and March 2017, the Gamma-ray…
Development of highly radiopure NaI(Tl) scintillator for PICOLON dark matter search project
K. Fushimi, Y. Kanemitsu, S. Hirata +20
The highly radiopure NaI(Tl) was developed to search for particle candidates of dark matter. The optimized methods were combined to reduce various radioactive impurities. The $^{40…
