As liquid xenon TPCs increase in target mass while pursuing the direct detection of WIMP dark matter, the technical challenges arising due to their size call for new solutions and open the discussion on alternative detector concepts.…

The propagation velocity of scintillation light in liquid argon $v_{g}$ at $\lambda \sim 128$~nm wavelength, has been measured for the first time in a dedicated experimental setup at CERN.\\ The obtained result $\frac{1}{v_{g}} = 7.46 \pm…

The radioactive noble gas radon can be a serious background source in the underground particle physics experiments studying processes that deposit energy comparable to its decay products. Low energy solar neutrino measurements at…

A particle detection system that exploits the scintillation light produced by ionizing particles in liquid argon (LAr) has been assembled at CERN. The system is based on 10 large-area photomultiplier tubes (PMT) immersed in a 1500-liter…

$^{222}Rn$ emanating from environmental dust constitutes an important background component for many low-energy, low-rate experiments. Radon emanation rates from dust and rock, thus, are important for experiment planning. In this paper, we…

Liquid xenon has several attractive features, which make it suitable for applications to nuclear medicine, such as high scintillation yield and fast scintillation decay time, better than currently used crystals. Since the '90s, several…

In this paper we present a method of scintillation detector energy calibration using the gamma-rays. The technique is based on the Compton scattering of gamma-rays in a scintillation detector and subsequent photoelectric absorption of the…

The scintillation light of liquid argon has been recorded wavelength and time resolved with very good statistics in a wavelength interval ranging from 118 nm through 970 nm. Three different ion beams, protons, sulfur ions and gold ions,…

In this work, we present a simple and low cost experiment designed to determine the infrared water absorption coefficient. We used a TV remote control as a point source of infrared light. The intensity after passing the light through…

A light-yield calibration of an NE 213A organic liquid scintillator detector has been performed using both monoenergetic and polyenergetic gamma-ray sources. Scintillation light was detected in a photomultiplier tube, and the corresponding…

Future neutrino experiments at low energies such as JUNO or THEIA will use large volume homogeneous liquid scintillator detectors. The optical attenuation length of the liquid is of uttermost importance for the successful realization of…

We have developed a low-energy electron recoil (ER) calibration method with $^{220}$Rn for the PandaX-II detector. $^{220}$Rn, emanated from natural thorium compounds, was fed into the detector through the xenon purification system. From…

The lowest-frequency Raman mode of water, observed through depolarized light scattering or optical Kerr effect techniques, is routinely used to track dynamic changes in water molecules near ions or biomolecules. Yet, the microscopic origin…

A scintillating fiber array measurement system for gross beta is developed to achieve real-time monitoring of radioactivity in drinking water. The detector consists of 1,096 scintillating fibers, both sides of the fibers connect to a…

A novel portable fluorometer combining the attributes of a smartphone with an easy fit, simple and compact sample chamber fabricated using 3D printing has been developed for pH measurements of environmental water in the field. The results…

Measurements of a well-characterised standard sample can verify the performance of an instrument. Typically, small-angle neutron scattering instruments are used to investigate a wide range of samples and may often be used in a number of…

Numerous particle physics experiments utilize gadolinium (Gd), a rare earth element with the most significant neutron capture cross-section among all elements, to detect anti-neutrinos via inverse beta-decays or to remove neutron-induced…

The XENONnT experiment has achieved an exceptionally low $^\text{222}$Rn activity concentration within its inner 5.9$\,$tonne liquid xenon detector of (0.90$\,\pm\,$0.01$\,$stat.$\,\pm\,$0.07 sys.)$\,\mu$Bq/kg, equivalent to about 430…

We present a detector apparatus, DireXeno (DIRectinal Xenon), designed to measure the spatial and temporal properties of scintillation in liquid xenon to very high accuracy. The properties of scintillation are of primary importance for dark…

To study the dependence of the equation of state of high density nuclear matter on the term characterizing the isospin (proton-neutron) asymmetry of nuclear matter, it is necessary to measure azimuthal flow of neutrons as well as azimuthal…
