ZnWO_4 crystals as detectors for double beta decay and dark matter experiments

, 2004
Energy resolution, alpha/beta ratio, and the pulse shape discrimination ability of the ZnWO_4 crystal scintillators were studied. The radioactive contamination of a ZnWO_4 crystal was investigated in the Solotvina Underground Laboratory. Possibilities to apply ZnWO_4 crystals for the dark matter and double beta decay searches are discussed.

Improved axion haloscope search analysis

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2021
One of the most significant and practical figures of merit in axion haloscope searches is the scanning rate, because of the unknown axion mass. Under the best experimental parameters, the only way to improve the figure of merit is to increase the ...

Migdal effect and photon Bremsstrahlung: improving the sensitivity to light dark matter of liquid argon experiments

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
The search for dark matter weakly interacting massive particles with noble liquids has probed masses down and below a GeV/c 2. The ultimate limit is represented by the experimental threshold on the energy transfer to the nuclear recoil.

Axion dark matter detection by superconducting resonant frequency conversion

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020
We propose an approach to search for axion dark matter with a specially designed superconducting radio frequency cavity, targeting axions with masses m a ≲ 10 −6 eV. Our approach exploits axion-induced transitions between nearly degenerate resonant modes
