AARM (assay and acquisition of radiopure materials) integrative infrastructure for low background techniques
Abstract
The AARM collaboration was established for the purpose of designing a low background user facility at DUSEL. Over the last four years, it has been successful in uniting dark matter and double beta decay experiments around common issues of assay, simulation tools, and experimental validation of the physics processes underlying simulations.
