Effect of Low Electric Fields on Alpha Scintillation Light Yield in Liquid Argon
P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque, T. Alexander +158
Measurements were made of scintillation light yield of alpha particles from the Rn decay chain within the DarkSide-50 liquid argon time projection chamber. The light yield…
Cosmic-muon characterization and annual modulation measurement with Double Chooz detectors
T. Abrahão, H. Almazan, J. C. dos Anjos +107
A study on cosmic muons has been performed for the two identical near and far neutrino detectors of the Double Chooz experiment, placed at 120 and 300 m.w.e. undergroun…
A new type of Neutrino Detector for Sterile Neutrino Search at Nuclear Reactors and Nuclear Nonproliferation Applications
C. Lane, S. M. Usman, J. Blackmon +21
We describe a new detector, called NuLat, to study electron anti-neutrinos a few meters from a nuclear reactor, and search for anomalous neutrino oscillations. Such oscillations co…
The Electronics and Data Acquisition System of the DarkSide Dark Matter Search
The DarkSide Collaboration, P. Agnes, T. Alexander +143
It is generally inferred from astronomical measurements that Dark Matter (DM) comprises approximately 27\% of the energy-density of the universe. If DM is a subatomic particle, a p…
Advanced Scintillator Detector Concept (ASDC): A Concept Paper on the Physics Potential of Water-Based Liquid Scintillator
J. R. Alonso, N. Barros, M. Bergevin +47
The recent development of Water-based Liquid Scintillator (WbLS), and the concurrent development of high-efficiency and high-precision-timing light sensors, has opened up the possi…
First Results from the DarkSide-50 Dark Matter Experiment at Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso
P. Agnes, T. Alexander, A. Alton +143
We report the first results of DarkSide-50, a direct search for dark matter operating in the underground Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) and searching for the rare nucle…
