Title: The ANAIS-112 experiment at the Canfranc Underground Laboratory,
Abstract: The ANAIS experiment aims at the confirmation of the DAMA/LIBRA signal at the
Canfranc Underground Laboratory (LSC). Several 12.5 kg NaI(Tl) modules produced
by Alpha Spectra Inc. have been operated there during the last years in various
set-ups; an outstanding light collection at the level of 15 photoelectrons per
keV, which allows triggering at 1 keV of visible energy, has been measured for
all of them and a complete characterization of their background has been
achieved. In the first months of 2017, the full ANAIS-112 set-up consisting of
nine Alpha Spectra detectors with a total mass of 112.5 kg was commissioned at
LSC and the first dark matter run started in August, 2017. Here, the latest
results on the detectors performance and measured background from the
commissioning run will be presented and the sensitivity prospects of the
ANAIS-112 experiment will be discussed.
