Rare-event search experiments, for example those looking for dark matter and neutrinoless double beta decay, require increasingly sensitive detectors. A critical aspect of this, is the reduction of backgrounds from detector materials, especially those in contact with the sensitive volume. High-grade copper is an attractive construction choice, due to its commercial availability and lack of...
Future detecting systems for direct Dark Matter (DM) detection require ultra radiopure materials. Electroformed copper (EFCu) is the material of choice for large-scale detectors thanks to its favourable radiochemical, thermal, and electrical properties. To fulfil the unique radiopurity requirements, experiments pioneer large-scale, additive-free Cu electroformation in deep underground...
In the global quest for dark matter, we often think of (and wish for!) a scenario where we will have more than one experiment confirming a discovery. The question we'd like to reflect on in this poster is: how do we make sure that others can also reproduce such a finding, or in other words that the data and tools we are using are Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reproducible (FAIR)? We...
