A Demonstration of Slowed Electron Drift for PTOLEMY
M. Farino, A. Tan, A. Apponi +58
To resolve the effective neutrino mass with an energy resolution of 50~meV, the PTOLEMY experiment has proposed a novel transverse electromagnetic filtering process. Substant…
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…
Performance of the ReD TPC, a novel double-phase LAr detector with Silicon Photomultiplier Readout
P. Agnes, S. Albergo, I. Albuquerque +64
A double-phase argon Time Projection Chamber (TPC), with an active mass of 185 g, has been designed and constructed for the Recoil Directionality (ReD) experiment. The aim of the R…
Measurement of the muon flux in the bunker of Monte Soratte with the CRC detector
Attanasio Candela, Alfredo Cocco, Nicola D Ambrosio +10
In the context of the PTOLEMY project, the need for a site with a rather low cosmogenic induced background led us to measure the differential muon flux inside the bunker of Monte S…
Identification of the cosmogenic C background in large volumes of liquid scintillators with Borexino
M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller, S. Appel +93
Cosmogenic radio-nuclei are an important source of background for low-energy neutrino experiments. In Borexino, cosmogenic C decays outnumber solar and CNO neutrino ev…
The Low Polonium Field of Borexino and its significance for the CNO neutrino detection
S. Kumaran, M. Agostini, K. Altenmüller +93
Borexino is a liquid scintillator detector located at the Laboratori Nazionale del Gran Sasso, Italy with the main goal to measure solar neutrinos. The experiment recently provided…
