Rejection of randomly coinciding 2{ν}2{β} events in ZnMoO4 scintillating bolometers
read the original abstract
Random coincidence of 2{\nu}2{\beta} decay events could be one of the main sources of background for 0{\nu}2{\beta} decay in cryogenic bolometers due to their poor time resolution. Pulse-shape discrimination by using front edge analysis, the mean-time and \c{hi}2 methods was applied to discriminate randomly coinciding 2{\nu}2{\beta} events in ZnMoO4 cryogenic scintillating bolometers. The background can be effectively rejected on the level of 99% by the mean-time analysis of heat signals with the rise time about 14 ms and the signal-to-noise ratio 900, and on the level of 98% for the light signals with 3 ms rise time and signal-to-noise ratio of 30 (under a requirement to detect 95% of single events). Importance of the signal-to-noise ratio, correct finding of the signal start and choice of an appropriate sampling frequency are discussed.
