This paper presents a measurement of the ratio of photon to electron production and the scintillation spectrum in a popular gas for time pro jection chambers, carbon tetrafluoride (CF4), over the range of 200 to 800 nm; the ratio is measured to be 0.34+/-0.04. This result is of particular importance for a new generation of dark matter time projection chambers with directional sensitivity which use CF4 as a fill gas.
Results obtained with a triple GEM detector operated in pure CF4 with and without a reflective CsI photocathode are presented. The detector operates in a stable mode at gains up to 10^4. A deviation from exponential growth starts to develop when the
Carbon-tetrafluoride (CF4) is used as a counting gas in particle detectors, but some of its properties that are of interest for large time-projection chambers are not well known. We measure the mean energy, which is proportional to the diffusion coef
The article deals with the detection efficiency of UV-photon detectors consisting of Thick Gas Electron Multipliers (THGEM) coated with CsI photocathode, operated in atmospheric Ne/CH4 and Ne/CF4 mixtures. We report on the photoelectron extraction ef
In the Fall of 2017, two photon detector designs for the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) Far Detector were installed and tested in the TallBo liquid argon (LAr) cryostat at the Proton Assembly (PAB) facility, Fermilab. The designs include
We report the measurement of longitudinal electron diffusion coefficients in liquid argon for electric fields between 100 and 2000 V/cm with a gold photocathode as a bright electron source. The measurement principle, apparatus, and data analysis are
