Radiopurity measurement of acrylic for the DEAP-3600 dark matter experiment
The liquid argon target of the DEAP-3600 dark matter detector is contained by an extremely radiopure acrylic vessel. Alpha decays from the inner surface of the acrylic vessel are a source of background. If a fraction of the alpha energy is observed, or if the recoiling nucleus from the alpha decay …

Detection of Solar Neutrino Absorption and Study of TPB and Acrylic Fluorescence in DEAP-3600
DEAP-3600 is a liquid argon experiment located at SNOLAB whose principal goal is to observe WIMP dark matter. There are many DEAP-3600 analyses that can use the high livetime of the ultra-low background LAr detector to expand the scientific output of the experiment. With recent hardware upgrades, …

First Search for Gravitational Wave Coincident Neutrinos in a Liquid Argon Detector with DEAP-3600
… extremely low cross sections. One such detector, DEAP-3600, was originally designed to observe weak interactions between nuclei and dark matter; its low backgrounds and argon target make it suitable for observing neutrino absorption interactions from astrophysical sources as well. Binary mergers …

Identification and Reduction of the Alpha Background, From 238U and 232Th Decay Chains, in the DEAP-3600 Experiment.
… of the most pursued goals of modern physics. The DEAP collaboration developed a single-phase 3600 kg liquid argon experiment, DEAP-3600, to measure possible nuclear recoils generated by the interactions between the target nuclei and WIMP particles from the surrounding galactic dark matter halo. …
