First direction sensitive search for dark matter with a nuclear emulsion detector at a surface site

Atsuhiro Umemoto, Tatsuhiro Naka, Takuya Shiraishi +8

Fine-grained nuclear emulsion films have been developed as a tracking detector with nanometric spatial resolution to be used in direction-sensitive dark matter searches, thanks to…

Directional Sensitivity of the NEWSdm Experiment to Cosmic Ray Boosted Dark Matter

N. Y. Agafonova, A. Alexandrov, A. M. Anokhina +54

We present a study of a directional search for Dark Matter boosted forward when scattered by cosmic-ray nuclei, using a module of the NEWSdm experiment. The boosted Dark Matter flu…

Super-resolution imaging for the detection of low-energy ion tracks in fine-grained nuclear emulsions

Andrey Alexandrov, Takashi Asada, Fabio Borbone +2

We propose a new wide-field imaging method that exploits the Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance phenomenon to produce super-resolution images with an optical microscope equipped w…

Environmental sub-MeV neutron measurement at the Gran Sasso surface laboratory with a super-fine-grained nuclear emulsion detector

T. Shiraishi, S. Akamatsu, T. Naka +8

The measurement of environmental neutrons is particularly important in the search for new physics, such as dark matter particles, because neutrons constitute an often-irreducible b…

Optical shape analysis based on discrete Fourier transform and second order moment calculation of the brightness distribution for the detection of sub-micron range low energy tracks

Atsuhiro Umemoto, Tatsuhiro Naka, Toshiyuki Nakano +3

To recognize sub-micron range low energy tracks recorded in a super fine grained nuclear emulsion (Nano Imaging Tracker), an elliptical fitting method was devised to analyze anisot…
