A large facility for photosensors test at cryogenic temperature
Z. Balmforth, A. Basco, A. Boiano +11
Current generation of detectors using noble gases in liquid phase for direct dark matter search and neutrino physics need large area photosensors. Silicon based photo-detectors are…
A versatile cryogenic system for liquid argon detectors
G. Grauso, A. Basco, N. Canci +5
Detectors for direct dark matter search using noble gases in liquid phase as detection medium need to be coupled to liquefaction, purification and recirculation systems. A dedicate…
Sensitivity projections for a dual-phase argon TPC optimized for light dark matter searches through the ionization channel
P. Agnes, I. Ahmad, S. Albergo +296
Dark matter lighter than 10 GeV/c encompasses a promising range of candidates. A conceptual design for a new detector, DarkSide-LowMass, is presented, based on the DarkSide-50…
Search for dark matter particle interactions with electron final states with DarkSide-50
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +140
We present a search for dark matter particles with sub-GeV/ masses whose interactions have final state electrons using the DarkSide-50 experiment's (12306 184) kg d low-…
Search for dark matter-nucleon interactions via Migdal effect with DarkSide-50
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +141
Dark matter elastic scattering off nuclei can result in the excitation and ionization of the recoiling atom through the so-called Migdal effect. The energy deposition from the ioni…
Search for low-mass dark matter WIMPs with 12 ton-day exposure of DarkSide-50
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +139
We report on the search for dark matter WIMPs in the mass range below 10 GeV/c, from the analysis of the entire dataset acquired with a low-radioactivity argon target by the Da…
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in the PTOLEMY project: a theory update
PTOLEMY Collaboration, A. Apponi, M. G. Betti +58
We discuss the consequences of the quantum uncertainty on the spectrum of the electron emitted by the -processes of a tritium atom bound to a graphene sheet. We analyze quantita…
SiPM cross-talk in liquid argon detectors
M. G. Boulay, V. Camillo, N. Canci +23
SiPM-based readouts are becoming the standard for light detection in particle detectors given their superior resolution and ease of use with respect to vacuum tube photo-multiplier…
