Abstract

We present the first direct experimental confirmation of the fast component re-emission in liquid argon (LAr) doped with xenon (Xe). This effect was studied at various Xe concentrations up to ∼3000 ppm. The rate constant of energy transfer for the fast component was quantified. It was shown that LAr doped with a high concentration of Xe without TPB has a better Pulse Shape Discrimination (PSD) efficiency than pure LAr or Xe-doped LAr with TPB. The stability of LAr+Xe mixture was tested for the first time at high Xe concentration for long continuous runtimes.
