Decades of innovation have established xenon TPCs as a leading detector technology in the search for new physics in the form of Majorana neutrinos and WIMP-like dark matter. Searches for both phenomena have probed significant parameter space but have yet to make a discovery. To further augment sensitivity, new experiments will require greater xenon masses. While these two new physics channels...
Paradoxically ubiquitous but exceedingly rare, xenon requires a one trillion-fold enrichment from air to the ultrapure product. We explain how Linde scales the key engineering processes to industrial capacity, achieving a leading global production while maintaining the consistent purity and quality our customers and their demanding applications require. Focusing on the semiconductor and...
Orano Stable Isotopes ‘ambition is to increase the supply of stable isotopes in the OECD area. The commissioning of our first cascade of centrifuges was successfully completed in October 2023. Since Orano met the double beta decay community in Nantes in 2023, Orano started operating its production unit and has been delivering isotopically modified compounds, and particularly Xenon isotopes. We...
