Implementation and Optimization of the PTOLEMY Transverse Drift Electromagnetic Filter
A. Apponi, M. G. Betti, M. Borghesi +53
The PTOLEMY transverse drift filter is a new concept to enable precision analysis of the energy spectrum of electrons near the tritium beta-decay endpoint. This paper details the i…
CUORE Opens the Door to Tonne-scale Cryogenics Experiments
CUORE Collaboration, D. Q. Adams, C. Alduino +206
The past few decades have seen major developments in the design and operation of cryogenic particle detectors. This technology offers an extremely good energy resolution - comparab…
High sensitivity characterization of an ultra-high purity NaI(Tl) crystal scintillator with the SABRE proof-of-principle detector
F. Calaprice, S. Copello, I. Dafinei +23
We present new results on the radiopurity of a 3.4-kg NaI(Tl) crystal scintillator operated in the SABRE proof-of-principle detector setup. The amount of potassium contamination, d…
Measurement of Po half-life with the CUPID-0 experiment
O. Azzolini, J. W. Beeman, F. Bellini +44
Rare event physics demands very detailed background control, high-performance detectors, and custom analysis strategies. Cryogenic calorimeters combine all these ingredients very e…
Background identification in cryogenic calorimeters through delayed coincidences
O. Azzolini, J. W. Beeman, F. Bellini +42
Localization and modeling of radioactive contaminations is a challenge that ultra-low background experiments are constantly facing. These are fundamental steps both to extract scie…
