Passivation of Si(Li) detectors operated above cryogenic temperatures for space-based applications
Nathan Saffold, Field Rogers, Mengjiao Xiao +12
This work evaluates the viability of polyimide and parylene-C for passivation of lithium-drifted silicon (Si(Li)) detectors. The passivated Si(Li) detectors will form the particle…
GAPS: Searching for Dark Matter using Antinuclei in Cosmic Rays
R. Bird, T. Aramaki, M. Boezio +47
The General Antiparticle Spectrometer (GAPS) will carry out a sensitive dark matter search by measuring low-energy () cosmic ray antinuclei.…
Development of Large-area Lithium-drifted Silicon Detectors for the GAPS Experiment
M. Kozai, H. Fuke, M. Yamada +11
We have developed large-area lithium-drifted silicon (Si(Li)) detectors to meet the unique requirements of the General Antiparticle Spectrometer (GAPS) experiment. GAPS is an Antar…
GAPS: A New Cosmic Ray Anti-matter Experiment
S. Quinn, T. Aramaki, R. Bird +37
The General AntiParticle Spectrometer (GAPS) is a balloon-borne instrument designed to detect cosmic-ray antimatter using the novel exotic atom technique, obviating the strong magn…
Fabrication of low-cost, large-area prototype Si(Li) detectors for the GAPS experiment
Kerstin Perez, Tsuguo Aramaki, Charles J. Hailey +14
A Si(Li) detector fabrication procedure has been developed with the aim of satisfying the unique requirements of the GAPS (General Antiparticle Spectrometer) experiment. Si(Li) det…
The GAPS Experiment to Search for Dark Matter using Low-energy Antimatter
R. A. Ong, T. Aramaki, R. Bird +26
The GAPS experiment is designed to carry out a sensitive dark matter search by measuring low-energy cosmic ray antideuterons and antiprotons. GAPS will provide a new avenue to acce…
