We present the design, data and results from the NEXT prototype for Double Beta and Dark
Matter (NEXT-DBDM) detector, a high-pressure gaseous natural xenon electroluminescent …

We introduce a simulation framework for the transport of high and low energy electrons in
xenon-based optical time projection chambers (OTPCs). The simulation relies on …

NEXT-DEMO 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 …

NEXT is a new experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay using a 100 kg
radio-pure high-pressure gaseous xenon TPC. The detector requires excellent energy …

The primary scintillation signal in gaseous detectors can be used to obtain the initial
interaction time of a detected event, but existing results in the literature for its yield in …

High-pressure xenon gas is an attractive detection medium for a variety of applications in
fundamental and applied physics. In this paper we study the ionization and scintillation …

The Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC (NEXT) seeks to discover the neutrinoless
double beta ($\beta\beta 0\nu $) decay of $^{136} $ Xe using a high-pressure xenon gas …

We present a systematic study of the time and band-resolved scintillation in xenon-based
time projection chambers (TPCs), performed simultaneously for the primary (S1) and …

Xenon scintillation has been widely used in rare event detection experiments, such as in
neutrinoless double beta decay, double electron captures and dark matter searches …

Ionization and scintillation produced by nuclear recoils in gaseous xenon at approximately
14 bar have been simultaneously observed in an electroluminescent time projection …
