Radiation hardness characterization of SiPM sensors for Low Earth Orbit space missions
R. Aloisio, F. C. T. Barbato, I. De Mitri +16
This work presents a comprehensive radiation hardness characterization of SiPM devices for space-based applications: FBK NUV-HD-MT and NUV-HD-LowCT (11, 33, and 6$\…
Optimizing a Broad Energy High Purity Germanium (BEGe) Detector Operated at Shallow Depth in Abu Dhabi
O. Fawwaz, H. Shams, F. Arneodo +1
In this work we present the characterization of a Broad Energy Germanium (BEGe) type High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector, with a carbon fiber entrance window thickness of 0.6 mm…
Application and modeling of an online distillation method to reduce krypton and argon in XENON1T
E. Aprile, K. Abe, F. Agostini +151
A novel online distillation technique was developed for the XENON1T dark matter experiment to reduce intrinsic background components more volatile than xenon, such as krypton or ar…
Material radiopurity control in the XENONnT experiment
E. Aprile, K. Abe, F. Agostini +150
The selection of low-radioactive construction materials is of the utmost importance for rare-event searches and thus critical to the XENONnT experiment. Results of an extensive rad…
Cryogenic readout for multiple VUV4 Multi-Pixel Photon Counters in liquid xenon
F. Arneodo, M. L. Benabderrahmane, G. Bruno +6
We present the performances and characterization of an array made of S13370-3050CN (VUV4 generation) Multi-Pixel Photon Counters manufactured by Hamamatsu and equipped with a low p…
Online Rn removal by cryogenic distillation in the XENON100 experiment
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +119
We describe the purification of xenon from traces of the radioactive noble gas radon using a cryogenic distillation column. The distillation column is integrated into the gas purif…
Removing krypton from xenon by cryogenic distillation to the ppq level
XENON Collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +119
The XENON1T experiment aims for the direct detection of dark matter in a cryostat filled with 3.3 tons of liquid xenon. In order to achieve the desired sensitivity, the background…
Physics reach of the XENON1T dark matter experiment
The XENON collaboration, E. Aprile, J. Aalbers +113
The XENON1T experiment is currently in the commissioning phase at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso, Italy. In this article we study the experiment's expected sensitivity to…
Emulsion sheet doublets as interface trackers for the OPERA experiment
A. Ariga
New methods for efficient and unambiguous interconnection between electronic counters and target units based on nuclear photographic emulsion films have been developed. The applica…
