Initial performance of the high sensitivity alpha particle detector at the Yangyang underground laboratory
read the original abstract
Initial performance of the UltraLo-1800 alpha particle detector at the 700 m deep Yangyang underground laboratory in Korea is described. The ionization detector uses Argon as a counting gas for measuring alpha events of a sample. We present initial calibration results and low-activity sample measurements based on the detector's pulse discrimination method and a hardware veto. A likelihood analysis that shows a separation of a bulk component from a surface component with a contamination depth from $^{210}$Po alpha particles using simulated models is presented.
