Proposed low-energy absolute calibration of nuclear recoils in a dual-phase noble element TPC using D-D neutron scattering kinematics

J. R. Verbus, C. A. Rhyne, D. C. Malling +12

We propose a new technique for the calibration of nuclear recoils in large noble element dual-phase time projection chambers used to search for WIMP dark matter in the local galact…

Cosmogenic Activation of Materials Used in Rare Event Search Experiments

C. Zhang, D. -M. Mei, V. A. Kudryavtsev +1

We evaluate the cosmogenic production rates in some materials that are commonly used as targets and shielding/supporting components for detecting rare events. The results from Gean…
