Ar Production and Injection to a Liquid Argon Environment for Background Mitigation Studies
Mario Schwarz, Christoph Vogl, Niko N. P. N. Lay +6
Atmosphere-sourced argon contains traces of Ar, whose $β^-$-decaying progeny K represents a significant intrinsic background for rare-event experiments using liquid…

Demonstration of the light collection stability of a PEN-based wavelength shifting reflector in a tonne scale liquid argon detector
V. Gupta, G. R. Araujo, M. Babicz +18
Liquid argon detectors rely on wavelength shifters for efficient detection of scintillation light. The current standard is tetraphenyl butadiene (TPB), but it is challenging to ins…
