Scintillation Properties of a Stilbene Crystal for Low-Mass Dark Matter Searches
Se Hwan Lee, Jaeyoung Cho, D. Joseph Daniel +4
Direct searches for low-mass WIMPs require sensitivity to low-energy nuclear recoils. Hydrogen-containing targets offer favorable scattering kinematics because low-mass WIMPs can t…
Development and Initial Performance of an Upgraded NaI(Tl) Crystal Encapsulation for COSINE-100U
Doohyeok Lee, Jae Young Cho, Chang Hyon Ha +23
The COSINE-100 experiment was designed to test the DAMA/LIBRA annual-modulation claim using low-background NaI(Tl) detectors. For the COSINE-100U upgrade, we developed a new crysta…
Validation of the COSINE-100U NaI(Tl) Encapsulation for Low-Temperature Operation in Liquid Scintillator
Kihong Park, Sungjin Cho, Luis Eduardo Franca +12
The COSINE-100U (upgrade) will enhance the sensitivity of the COSINE-100 dark matter search by operating the detector array immersed in liquid scintillator (LS) at . To val…

Optimizing Sterile Neutrino Searches: Impact of Position Resolution in Short-Baseline Reactor Experiments
Young Ju Ko
The impact of position resolution on the sensitivity of short-baseline reactor neutrino experiments searching for light sterile neutrinos is investigated. Detailed simulations are…
COSINE-100 Full Dataset Challenges the Annual Modulation Signal of DAMA/LIBRA
N. Carlin, J. Y. Cho, J. J. Choi +56
For over 25 years, the DAMA/LIBRA collaboration has claimed to observe an annual modulation signal, suggesting the existence of dark matter interactions. However, no experiment emp…
