Neutron-hole strength in N = 81 nuclei
A. M. Howard, S. J. Freeman, D. K. Sharp +7
A systematic study of neutron-hole strength in the N = 81 nuclei 137Ba, 139Ce, 141Nd and 143Sm is reported. The single-neutron removal reactions (p,d) and (3He,4He) were measured a…
Structure of Be probed via secondary beam reactions
G. Randisi, A. Leprince, H. Al Falou +23
The low-lying level structure of the unbound neutron-rich nucleus Be has been investigated via breakup on a carbon target of secondary beams of B at 35 MeV/nucleon…
Validation of techniques to mitigate copper surface contamination in CUORE
F. Alessandria, R. Ardito, D. R. Artusa +115
In this article we describe the background challenges for the CUORE experiment posed by surface contamination of inert detector materials such as copper, and present three techniqu…
CUORE crystal validation runs: results on radioactive contamination and extrapolation to CUORE background
F. Alessandria, E. Andreotti, R. Ardito +116
The CUORE Crystal Validation Runs (CCVRs) have been carried out since the end of 2008 at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories, in order to test the performances and the radiopurity…
Muon-induced backgrounds in the CUORICINO experiment
E. Andreotti, C. Arnaboldi, F. T. Avignone +68
To better understand the contribution of cosmic ray muons to the CUORICINO background, 10 plastic scintillator detectors were installed at the CUORICINO site and operated during th…
