Dark Matter Sensitivity of the CYGNO Detector with HFO-1234ze Enhanced Gas Mixtures
F. D. Amaro, R. Antonietti, E. Baracchini +42
The CYGNO collaboration introduces an innovative approach to direct dark matter detection, proposing a high-resolution optical Time Projection Chamber. It operates at atmospheric p…
Detection of scintillation light in noble gases with wavelength-shifting optical fibers
S. R. Soleti, S. Torelli, G. MartÃnez-Lema +110
Wavelength-shifting (WLS) techniques enable particle detectors based on noble gases, whose scintillation light is predominantly emitted in the vacuum-ultraviolet. We investigate WL…
Radon-induced backgrounds in the NEXT-100 experiment
NEXT Collaboration, C. Cortes-Parra, P. Novella +111
The NEXT-100 detector at the LSC aims at the first competitive search for the \bbnonu decay using a high-pressure \Xe{136} electroluminescent time projection chamber. The first low…
He-CF4-CH4 ternary mixtures as target gas for the CYGNO directional dark matter experiment
F. D. Amaro, R. Antonietti, E. Baracchini +41
The CYGNO collaboration is advancing a high-resolution optical Time Projection Chamber (TPC) for directional dark matter searches and solar neutrino spectroscopy at LNGS. The detec…
Simulation of the CYGNO Gaseous TPC Optical Readout
F. D. Amaro, R. Antonietti, E. Baracchini +41
Gaseous Time Projection Chambers with Optical Readout are sensitive detectors suitable for 3D measurement of low-energy O(1 keV) particles and are proposed for detecting rare event…
Upgrade of the Trigger and Data Acquisition System for Continuous Imaging and Multi-Camera Operation in CYGNO
F. D. Amaro, R. Antonietti, E. Baracchini +41
The CYGNO experiment employs an optical readout to image particle interactions in a gaseous Time Projection Chamber (TPC), combining cameras and photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) to ach…
