Abstract:DEAP-3600 is a single-phase liquid argon WIMP detector located 2 km underground in the SNOLAB research facility. DEAP-3600 is searching for dark matter; an elusive form of matter that was first postulated in the early 20 th century, but has not yet been found. The goal of the following work is to perform a low mass WIMP search. A low mass WIMP search is made possible by lowering the energy threshold of the hardware trigger from 1000 ADC to 150 ADC. Low energy events in the detector are characterized as Cherenk… Show more
