Background modeling for dark matter search with 1.7 years of COSINE-100 data
G. Adhikari, P. Adhikari, E. Barbosa de Souza +47
We present a background model for dark matter searches using an array of NaI(Tl) crystals in the COSINE-100 experiment that is located in the Yangyang underground laboratory. The m…
Search for a Dark Matter-Induced Annual Modulation Signal in NaI(Tl) with the COSINE-100 Experiment
100 Collaboration, G. Adhikari, P. Adhikari +46
We present new constraints on the dark matter-induced annual modulation signal using 1.7 years, of COSINE-100 data with a total exposure of 97.7 kgyears. The COSINE-100 expe…
Background model for the NaI(Tl) crystals in COSINE-100
P. Adhikari, G. Adhikari, E. Barbosa de Souza +46
The COSINE-100 dark matter search experiment is an array of NaI(Tl) crystal detectors located in the Yangyang Underground Laboratory (Y2L). To understand measured backgrounds in th…
Measurement of low-energy background events due to Rn contamination on the surface of a NaI(Tl) crystal
K. W. Kim, C. Ha, N. Y. Kim +4
It has been known that decays of daughter elements of Rn on the surface of a detector cause significant background at energies below 10 keV. In particular Pb and $^…
Pulse-shape discrimination between electron and nuclear recoils in a NaI(Tl) crystal
H. S. Lee, G. Adhikari, P. Adhikari +24
We report on the response of a high light-output NaI(Tl) crystal to nuclear recoils induced by neutrons from an Am-Be source and compare the results with the response to electron r…
Tests on NaI(Tl) crystals for WIMP search at the Yangyang Underground Laboratory
K. W. Kim, W. G. Kang, S. Y. Oh +17
Among the direct search experiments for WIMP dark matter, the DAMA experiment observed an annual modulation signal interpreted as WIMP interactions with 9.2 significance. Howeve…
