The liquid-argon scintillation pulseshape in DEAP-3600

P. Adhikari, +119 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model for the pulseshape of electromagnetic background events in the energy region of interest for dark matter searches, which is composed of LAr scintillation physics, including the so-called intermediate component, the time response of the TPB wavelength shifter, including delayed TPB emission at $${\mathcal {O}}$(m) time-scales, and the PMT response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pulse-shape discrimination against low-energy Ar-39 beta decays in liquid argon with 4.5 tonne-years of DEAP-3600 data

P. Adhikari, +127 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used two types of PSD estimator: the prompt fraction, which considers the fraction of the scintillation signal in a narrow and a wide time window around the event peak, and the log-likelihood-ratio, which compares the observed photon arrival times to a signal and a background model.
