NEXT-100 Technical Design Report (TDR). Executive summary

Víctor H. Alvarez, +86 more
TL;DR: The Next-100 detector as discussed by the authors was designed to search for neutrinoless double beta decay (ββ0ν) in 136XE at the Laboratorio Subterraneo de Canfranc (LSC) in Spain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Near-intrinsic energy resolution for 30–662 keV gamma rays in a high pressure xenon electroluminescent TPC

TL;DR: The Next prototype for Double Beta and Dark Matter (NEXT-DBDM) detector was built at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) and achieved energy resolution of ∼ 1% FWHM for 662 keV gamma rays at 10 and 15 atm and ∼ 5% FWCM for 30 keV fluorescence xenon X-rays as discussed by the authors.

The NEXT-100 experiment for neutrinoless double beta decay searches (Conceptual Design Report)

TL;DR: In this article, an EASY (Electroluminescent ApparatuS of high yield) and SOFT (Separated Optimized FuncTion) time-projection chamber for the NEXT experiment was proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Initial results of NEXT-DEMO, a large-scale prototype of the NEXT-100 experiment

TL;DR: NEXT-DEMO as discussed by the authors is a large-scale prototype of the NEXT-100 detector, an electroluminescent time projection chamber that will search for the neutrinoless double beta decay of XE using 100-150 kg of enriched xenon gas.
Journal ArticleDOI
