Neutron inelastic scattering in natural Cu as a background in neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments

M. S. Boswell, S. R. Elliott, D. V. Perepelitsa +5

Experiments designed to study rare processes, such as neutrinoless double beta decay (), are crucial tests for physics beyond the standard model. These experiments rely on re…

Neutron-induced gamma-ray production cross sections for the first excited-state transitions in Ne-20 and Ne-22

S. MacMullin, M. Boswell, M. Devlin +8

Background: Neutron-induced reactions are a significant concern for experiments that require extremely low levels of radioactive backgrounds. Measurements of gamma-ray production c…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Physical Properties of Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect Clusters on the Celestial Equator

Felipe Menanteau, Cristóbal Sifón, L. Felipe Barrientos +28

We present the optical and X-ray properties of 68 galaxy clusters selected via the Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect at 148 GHz by the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT). Our sample, from a…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Cross-Correlation of CMB Lensing and Quasars

Blake D. Sherwin, Sudeep Das, Amir Hajian +28

We measure the cross-correlation of Atacama Cosmology Telescope CMB lensing convergence maps with quasar maps made from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey DR8 SDSS-XDQSO photometric cata…

The Atacama Cosmology Telescope: Relation Between Galaxy Cluster Optical Richness and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich Effect

Neelima Sehgal, Graeme Addison, Nick Battaglia +33

We present the measured Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) flux from 474 optically-selected MaxBCG clusters that fall within the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) Equatorial survey region. Th…
