Ultra-pure Nickel for Structural Components of Low-Radioactivity Instruments
T. J. Roosendaal, C. T. Overman, G. S. Ortega +123
The next generation of rare-event search experiments in nuclear and particle physics demand structural materials combining exceptional mechanical strength with ultra-low levels of…
Enhanced sensitivity to trace U impurity of sapphire via coincidence neutron activation analysis
D. Chernyak, I. J. Arnquist, T. Daniels +9
Sapphire has mechanical and electrical properties that are advantageous for the construction of internal components of radiation detectors such as time projection chambers and bolo…
Measurement of the Spectral Shape of the beta-decay of 137Xe to the Ground State of 137Cs in EXO-200 and Comparison with Theory
S. Al Kharusi, G. Anton, I. Badhrees +105
We report on a comparison between the theoretically predicted and experimentally measured spectra of the first-forbidden non-unique -decay transition $^{137}\textrm{Xe}(7/2^-)\t…
Cosmogenic production of Ar and Ar in argon
R. Saldanha, H. O. Back, R. H. M. Tsang +6
We have experimentally determined the production rate of Ar and Ar from cosmic ray neutron interactions in argon at sea level. Understanding these production rates is…
Sensitivity and discovery potential of the proposed nEXO experiment to neutrinoless double beta decay
nEXO Collaboration, J. B. Albert, G. Anton +143
The next-generation Enriched Xenon Observatory (nEXO) is a proposed experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta () decay in Xe with a target half-life sensitivi…
First Search for Lorentz and CPT Violation in Double Beta Decay with EXO-200
200 Collaboration, J. B. Albert, P. S. Barbeau +86
A search for Lorentz- and CPT-violating signals in the double beta decay spectrum of Xe has been performed using an exposure of 100 kgyr with the EXO-200 detector. N…
Cosmogenic Backgrounds to 0νββ in EXO-200
200 Collaboration, J. B. Albert, D. J. Auty +84
As neutrinoless double-beta decay experiments become more sensitive and intrinsic radioactivity in detector materials is reduced, previously minor contributions to the background m…
Search for decay of Xe to the 0 excited state of Ba with EXO-200
200 Collaboration, J. B. Albert, D. J. Auty +88
EXO-200 is a single phase liquid xenon detector designed to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay of Xe to the ground state of Ba. We report here on a search fo…
Measurements of the ion fraction and mobility of alpha and beta decay products in liquid xenon using EXO-200
J. B. Albert, D. J. Auty, P. S. Barbeau +82
Alpha decays in the EXO-200 detector are used to measure the fraction of charged and daughters created from alpha and beta decays, respectiv…
