Title: Performances of a large mass ZnMoO ₄ scintillating bolometer for a next generation 0νDBD experiment

Abstract

Here we present the performances of a 330 g zinc molybdate (ZnMoO ₄) crystal working as scintillating bolometer as a possible candidate for a next generation experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of ¹⁰⁰Mo. The energy resolution, evaluated at the 2615 keV γ-line of ²⁰⁸Tl, is 6.3 keV FWHM. The internal radioactive contaminations of the ZnMoO ₄ were evaluated as < 6 μBq/kg ( ²²⁸Th) and 27 ± 6 μBq/kg ( ²²⁶Ra). We also present the results of the α vs β/γ discrimination, obtained through the scintillation light as well as through the study of the shape of the thermal signal alone.

Radiopure ZnMoO{sub 4} scintillating bolometers for the LUMINEU double-beta experiment

Journal Article Poda, D. V. ; Chernyak, D. M. ; Institute for Nuclear Research, MSP 03680 Kyiv ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

The results of R&D of radiopure zinc molybdate (ZnMoO{sub 4}) based scintillating bolometers for the LUMINEU (Luminescent Underground Molybdenum Investigation for NEUtrino mass and nature) double-beta decay experiment are presented. A dedicated two-stage molybdenum purification technique (sublimation in vacuum and recrystallization from aqueous solutions) and an advanced directional solidification method (the low-thermal-gradient Czochralski technique) were utilized to produce high optical quality large mass (∼1 kg) ZnMoO{sub 4} crystal boules and first {sup 100}Mo (99.5%) enriched Zn{sup 100}MoO{sub 4} crystal scintillator (mass of ∼0.2 kg).

Enriched TeO2 bolometers with active particle discrimination: Towards the CUPID experiment

Journal Article Artusa, D. R. ; Avignone, III, F. T. ; Beeman, J. W. ; ... - Physics Letters B

We present the performances of two 92% enriched 130TeO2 crystals operated as thermal bolometers in view of a next generation experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 130Te. The crystals, 435 g each, show an energy resolution, evaluated at the 2615 keV γ-line of 208Tl, of 6.5 and 4.3 keV FWHM. The only observable internal radioactive contamination arises from 238U (15 and 8 μBq/kg, respectively). The internal activity of the most problematic nuclei for neutrinoless double beta decay, 226Ra and 228Th, are both evaluated as <3.1 μBq/kg for one crystal and <2.3 μBq/kg for the second.

Journal Article Danevich, F. A., E-mail: danevich@kinr.kiev.ua ; Boiko, R. S. ; Chernyak, D. M. ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

The LUMTNEU program aims at performing a pilot experiment on 0ν2β decay of {sup 100}Mo using radiopure ZnMoO{sub 4} crystals enriched in {sup 100}Mo operated as cryogenic scintillating bolometers. Large volume ZnMoO{sub 4} crystal scintillators (∼ 0.3 kg) were developed and tested showing high performance in terms of radiopurity, energy resolution and α/β particle discrimination capability. Zinc molybdate crystal scintillators enriched in {sup 100}Mo were grown for the first time by the low-thermal-gradient Czochralski technique with a high crystal yield and an acceptable level of enriched molybdenum irrecoverable losses.

The CUPID-Mo experiment for neutrinoless double-beta decay: performance and prospects

Journal Article Armengaud, E. ; Augier, C. ; Barabash, A. S. ; ... - European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

CUPID-Mo is a bolometric experiment to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay ($$0\nu\beta\beta$$) of $$^{100}$$Mo. In this article, we detail the CUPID-Mo detector concept, assembly, installation in the underground laboratory in Modane in 2018, and provide results from the first datasets. The demonstrator consists of an array of 20 scintillating bolometers comprised of $$^{100}$$Mo-enriched 0.2 kg Li$$_2$$MoO$$_4$$ crystals. The detectors are complemented by 20 thin cryogenic Ge bolometers acting as light detectors to distinguish $$\alpha$$ from $$\gamma$$/$$\beta$$ events by the detection of both heat and scintillation light signals. We observe good detector uniformity, facilitating the operation of a large detector arraymore »« less

Measurement of the scintillation and ionization response of liquid xenon at MeV energies in the EXO-200 experiment

Journal Article Anton, G. ; Badhrees, I. ; Barbeau, P. S. ; ... - Physical Review C

In this work, liquid xenon (LXe) is employed in a number of current and future detectors for rare event searches. We use the EXO-200 experimental data to measure the absolute scintillation and ionization yields generated by γ interactions from ²²⁸Th (2615 keV), ²²⁶Ra (1764 keV), and ⁶⁰Co (1332 keV and 1173 keV) calibration sources, over a range of electric fields. The W value that defines the recombination-independent energy scale is measured to be 11.5±0.5 (syst.) ±0.1 (stat.) eV. These data are also used to measure the recombination fluctuations in the number of electrons and photons produced by the calibration sourcesmore »« less
