Study of the energy calibration of the DEAP-3600 detector using Na-22 source data and simulations
DEAP-3600 is a single-phase liquid argon (LAr) direct-detection dark matter experiment, operating 2 km underground at SNOLAB (Sudbury, Canada). The detector consists of 3.3 tons of LAr contained in a spherical acrylic vessel. At WIMP mass of 100 GeV, DEAP-3600 has a projected sensitivity of 10-46 cm2 for the spin independent elastic scattering cross section of WIMPs. Radioactive sources have been used for the energy calibration and to test the detector performance. One of the most effective calibration run has been taken with a 22Na source deployed in a tube located around the DEAP-3600 steel shell. The simultaneous emission of three γs by the source provides an excellent tagging for the 22Na decay. The results concerning the energy response of the detector and the agreement between data and Monte Carlo simulations in DEAP-3600 are investigated in this study.
