Background Discrimination for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay in Liquid Xenon Using Cherenkov Light
Jason Philip Brodsky, Samuele Sangiorgio, Michael Heffner +1
Neutrinoless double beta decays in liquid xenon produce a significant amount of Cherenkov light, with a photon number and angular distribution that distinguishes these events from…
Measurement of the Antineutrino Spectrum from U Fission at HFIR with PROSPECT
PROSPECT Collaboration, J. Ashenfelter, A. B. Balantekin +67
This Letter reports the first measurement of the U energy spectrum by PROSPECT, the Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum experiment, operating 7.9m…
The PROSPECT Reactor Antineutrino Experiment
PROSPECT Collaboration, J. Ashenfelter, A. B. Balantekin +86
The Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment, PROSPECT, is designed to make both a precise measurement of the antineutrino spectrum from a highly-enriched uranium reac…
Study of Silicon Photomultiplier Performance in External Electric Fields
X. L. Sun, T. Tolba, G. F. Cao +149
We report on the performance of silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) light sensors operating in electric field strength up to 30 kV/cm and at a temperature of 149K, relative to their per…
Performance of a segmented Li-loaded liquid scintillator detector for the PROSPECT experiment
J. Ashenfelter, A. B. Balantekin, H. R. Band +63
This paper describes the design and performance of a 50 liter, two-segment Li-loaded liquid scintillator detector that was designed and operated as prototype for the PROSPECT…
First search for short-baseline neutrino oscillations at HFIR with PROSPECT
J. Ashenfelter, A. B. Balantekin, C. Baldenegro +85
This Letter reports the first scientific results from the observation of antineutrinos emitted by fission products of U at the High Flux Isotope Reactor. PROSPECT, the Prec…
VUV-sensitive Silicon Photomultipliers for Xenon Scintillation Light Detection in nEXO
A. Jamil, T. Ziegler, P. Hufschmidt +140
Future tonne-scale liquefied noble gas detectors depend on efficient light detection in the VUV range. In the past years Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) have emerged as a valid al…
nEXO Pre-Conceptual Design Report
nEXO Collaboration, S. Al Kharusi, A. Alamre +171
The projected performance and detector configuration of nEXO are described in this pre-Conceptual Design Report (pCDR). nEXO is a tonne-scale neutrinoless double beta () deca…
