PETALO: Time-of-Flight PET with liquid xenon
Paola Ferrario, Vicente Herrero-Bosch, José María Benlloch-Rodríguez +2
The fast scintillation decay time and the high scintillation yield of liquid xenon makes it an appropriate material for nuclear medicine. Moreover, being a continuous medium with a…
Low-diffusion Xe-He gas mixtures for rare-event detection: Electroluminescence Yield
A. F. M. Fernandes, C. A. O. Henriques, R. D. P. Mano +88
High pressure xenon Time Projection Chambers (TPC) based on secondary scintillation (electroluminescence) signal amplification are being proposed for rare event detection such as d…
Radiogenic backgrounds in the NEXT double beta decay experiment
NEXT Collaboration, P. Novella, B. Palmeiro +88
Natural radioactivity represents one of the main backgrounds in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay. Within the NEXT physics program, the radioactivity-induced background…
Demonstration of the event identification capabilities of the NEXT-White detector
NEXT Collaboration, P. Ferrario, J. M. Benlloch-Rodríguez +88
In experiments searching for neutrinoless double-beta decay, the possibility of identifying the two emitted electrons is a powerful tool in rejecting background events and therefor…
Energy calibration of the NEXT-White detector with 1% resolution near Q of Xe
J. Renner, G. Díaz López, P. Ferrario +87
Excellent energy resolution is one of the primary advantages of electroluminescent high pressure xenon TPCs, and searches for rare physics events such as neutrinoless double-beta d…
