Impact of Geant4's Electromagnetic Physics Constructors on Accuracy and Performance of Simulations for Rare Event Searches
H. Kluck, R. Breier, A. Fuà +3
A primary objective in contemporary low background physics is the search for rare and novel phenomena beyond the Standard Model of particle physics, e.g. the scattering off of a po…
Fabrication of thin planar radiopure foils with 82Se for the SuperNEMO Demonstrator
X. Aguerre, A. Barabash, A. Basharina-Freshville +72
The SuperNEMO Demonstrator, designed to search for double beta decay using enriched 82Se, has been assembled in the Modane Underground Laboratory under the French Alps. Thin foils…
Combining Hybrid and Opaque Scintillator Techniques in the Search for Double Beta Plus Decays
NuDoubt++ Collaboration, :, Manuel Böhles +10
Double beta plus decay is a rare nuclear disintegration process. Difficulties in its measurement arise from suppressed decay probabilities, experimentally challenging decay signatu…
Observation of a low energy nuclear recoil peak in the neutron calibration data of an AlO crystal in CRESST-III
CRESST Collaboration, G. Angloher, S. Banik +59
The current generation of cryogenic solid state detectors used in direct dark matter and CE\textnu NS searches typically reach energy thresholds of (10)eV for nucl…
The Impact of Helium Exposure on the PMTs of the SuperNEMO Experiment
SuperNEMO Collaboration, X. Aguerre, A. S. Barabash +76
The performance of Hamamatsu 8" photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) of the type used in the SuperNEMO neutrinoless double-beta decay experiment (R5912-MOD), is investigated as a function…
