First direct detection constraints on Planck-scale mass dark matter with multiple-scatter signatures using the DEAP-3600 detector
P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj, M. Alpízar-Venegas +94
Dark matter particles with Planck-scale mass () arise in well-motivated theories and could be produced by several cosmological mechanisms. Using a blin…
Calibration of the liquid argon ionization response to low energy electronic and nuclear recoils with DarkSide-50
The DarkSide collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +136
DarkSide-50 has demonstrated the high potential of dual-phase liquid argon time projection chambers in exploring interactions of WIMPs in the GeV/c mass range. The technique, b…
A study of events with photoelectric emission in the DarkSide-50 liquid argon Time Projection Chamber
50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +135
Finding unequivocal evidence of dark matter interactions in a particle detector is a major objective of physics research. Liquid argon time projection chambers offer a path to prob…
Performance of the ReD TPC, a novel double-phase LAr detector with Silicon Photomultiplier Readout
P. Agnes, S. Albergo, I. Albuquerque +64
A double-phase argon Time Projection Chamber (TPC), with an active mass of 185 g, has been designed and constructed for the Recoil Directionality (ReD) experiment. The aim of the R…
Direct comparison of PEN and TPB wavelength shifters in a liquid argon detector
M. G. Boulay, V. Camillo, N. Canci +26
A large number of particle detectors employ liquid argon as their target material owing to its high scintillation yield and its ability to drift ionization charge over large distan…
Pulseshape discrimination against low-energy Ar-39 beta decays in liquid argon with 4.5 tonne-years of DEAP-3600 data
The DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +126
The DEAP-3600 detector searches for the scintillation signal from dark matter particles scattering on a 3.3 tonne liquid argon target. The largest background comes from Ar b…
Separating Ar from Ar by cryogenic distillation with Aria for dark matter searches
DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, S. Albergo +309
The Aria project consists of a plant, hosting a 350 m cryogenic isotopic distillation column, the tallest ever built, which is currently in the installation phase in a mine shaft a…
