Towards the ultimate PMT waveform analysis for neutrino and dark matter experiments
نویسندگان
چکیده
Photomultiplier tube (PMT) voltage waveforms are the raw data of many neutrino and dark matter experiments. Waveform analysis is cornerstone processing. We evaluate performance all waveform algorithms known to us find fast stochastic matching pursuit best in accuracy. Significant time (up 2 times) energy 1.07 resolution boosts attainable with pursuit, approaching theoretical limits. Other methods also outperform traditional threshold crossing approach resolution.

DARWIN: towards the ultimate dark matter detector
DARk matter WImp search with liquid xenoN (DARWIN) will be an experiment for the direct detection of dark matter using a multi-ton liquid xenon time projection chamber at its core. Its primary goal will be to explore the experimentally accessible parameter space for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) in a wide mass-range, until neutrino interactions with the target become an irreducib...
متن کاملSearch for Neutrino Mass and Dark Matter in Underground Experiments
In this lecture we shall discuss two central problems of particle physics and cosmology. The neutrino mass is one of the key quantities in grand unified theories, and at the same time candidate for hot dark matter in the Universe. Supersymmetry is regarded as the most natural extension of present particle physics theories. The lighest SUSY particle, usually assumed to be the neutralino, is the ...
متن کاملDark Matter Detection and PMT Base Optimization
The purpose of the research presented in this paper is to help characterize and improve the photomultiplier tubes which go inside the Xenon dark matter detector. This paper discusses Dark Matter, the Xenon experiment, and the main project. The main project presented in this paper is the optimization of a parameter of photomultiplier tubes called linearity. Linearity means that the input and out...
متن کاملQuantum Efficiency Measurements of Dark Matter PMT
In this paper, improvements were made to procedure for measuring the quantum efficiency of dark matter photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), via LabVIEW automation software. Current dark matter detectors, such as the XENON100 experiment, as well as future detectors, such as the XENON1T, rely on the characterization of the component PMTs in order to properly analyze the data obtained during the course o...
متن کاملDirac Neutrino Dark Matter
We investigate the possibility that dark matter is made of heavy Dirac neutrinos with mass m ∈ [O(1) GeV– a few TeV] and with suppressed but non-zero coupling to the Standard Model Z as well as a coupling to an additional Z ′ gauge boson. The first part of this paper provides a model-independent analysis for the relic density and direct detection in terms of four main parameters: the mass, the ...
