22. Search for neutrinoless double beta decay with the NEXT experiment

Neus López March (IFIC (Universitat de València - CSIC))

9/21/23, 11:20 AM

oral presentation

The NEXT (Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC) collaboration seeks to discover the neutrinoless double beta decay (ββ0ν) of Xe-136 using a high-pressure gas time projection chamber with electroluminesence gain and optical read-out. A first medium-scale prototype with 5-kg of xenon, NEXT-White, operated at the Laboratorio Subterraneo de Canfranc (LSC) from 2016 to 2021. This prototype has...

44. Towards a fiber barrel detector for next-generation high-pressure gaseous xenon TPCs

Stefano Roberto Soleti (roberto.soleti@dipc.org)

9/21/23, 11:40 AM

Applications (dark matter, neutrino, medical physics etc.)

oral presentation

The NEXT (Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC) project is an international collaboration aimed at finding evidence of neutrinoless double beta decay using gaseous xenon. The current phase of the project involves the construction and operation of NEXT-100, which is designed to hold 100 kg of xenon at 15 bar and is expected to start commissioning in the fourth quarter of 2023. NEXT-HD will be a...

80. Searching for neutrinoless double beta decay using the nEXO detector

Mr Evan Angelico

oral presentation

47. Status and Prospects of the XEMIS2 experiment

Dominique Thers (SUBATECH)

9/21/23, 12:15 PM

Applications (dark matter, neutrino, medical physics etc.)

oral presentation

I will provide an overview of the most famous experimental developments proposed so far with prototypes comprising liquid xenon in order to supplant the solid cameras used today in functional medical PET gamma-rays imaging. A parenthesis also addresses the operating principle of Compton telescopes will be provided in order to motivate their future use in the context of XEMIS (Xenon Medical...

21. The PETALO project

Nerea Salor Iguiñiz

9/21/23, 12:35 PM

Applications (dark matter, neutrino, medical physics etc.)

oral presentation

PETALO (Positron Emission TOF Apparatus with Liquid xenOn) is a project that uses liquid xenon (LXe) as a scintillation medium, silicon photomultipliers as a readout and fast electronics to provide a significant improvement in PET-TOF technology. Liquid xenon allows one to build a continuous detector with a high stopping power for 511-keV gammas. In addition, SiPMs enable a fast and accurate...

69. Advancements in Total-Body PET Imaging: Xenon-Doped Liquid Argon Scintillator and Silicon Photomultiplier Detection

Dr Azam Zabihi (Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Center of the Polish Academy of Sciences, ASTROCENT, Warsaw, Poland)

9/21/23, 12:50 PM

Applications (dark matter, neutrino, medical physics etc.)

oral presentation

The 3DΠ project, developed in collaboration with DarkSide, introduces a novel Total-Body (TB), Time Of Flight (TOF), Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanner for medical imaging. This project builds upon the advancements made by the DarkSide collaboration in Liquid Argon(LAr) detector technology, low-radioactivity argon procurement, and cryogenic photosensor development.

The 3DΠ scanner...
