Measurements of neutrons produced by high-energy muons at the Boulby Underground Laboratory (2008)

Araujo, H. M., Blockley, J., Bungau, C., Carson, M. J., Chagani, H., Daw, E., ...

We present the first measurements of the muon-induced neutron flux at the Boulby Underground Laboratory. The experiment was carried out with an 0.73 tonne liquid scintillator that also served as an...

First measurement of low intensity fast neutron background from rock at the Boulby Underground Laboratory (2006)

Tziaferi, E., Carson, M. J., Kudryavtsev, V. A., Lerner, R., Lightfoot, P. K., Paling, S. M., ...

A technique to measure low intensity fast neutron flux has been developed. The design, calibrations, procedure for data analysis and interpretation of the results are discussed in detail. The...

Study and suppression of anomalous fast events in inorganic scintillators for dark matter searches (2003)

Kudryavtsev, V.A., Spooner, N.J. C., Lightfoot, P.K., Roberts, J.W., Lehner, M.J., Gamble, T., ...

The status of dark matter searches with inorganic scintillator detectors at Boulby mine is reviewed and the results of tests with a CsI(Tl) crystal are presented. The objectives of the latter...

The NAIAD experiment for WIMP searches at Boulby mine and recent results (2003)

Ahmed, B., Alner, G. J., Araujo, H., Barton, J. C., Bewick, A., Carson, M. J., ...

The NAIAD experiment (NaI Advanced Detector) for WIMP dark matter searches at Boulby mine (UK) is described. The detector consists of an array of encapsulated and unencapsulated NaI(Tl) crystals with...

Search for TeV emissions from pulsars in binary systems (2003)

Hall, T. A., Bond, I. H., Bradbury, S. M., Buckley, J. H., Carson, M. J., Carter-Lewis, D. A., ...

A survey of binary systems containing pulsars was conducted, with the intention of detecting Galactic sources of very high energy gamma-ray emission. Observations were carried out with the Whipple 10...
