LDMX -- The Light Dark Matter eXperiment
Torsten Akesson, Layan Alsaraya, Stephen Appert +116
The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is an electron fixed-target experiment optimized to search for sub-GeV dark matter production through the missing momentum signature. LDMX i…
Expected Sensitivity of the Light Dark Matter eXperiment to Long-Lived Dark Photons and Axion-Like Particles
Torsten Akesson, Clay Barton, Charles Bell +53
The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is an electron-beam fixed-target experiment primarily designed to achieve world-leading, model-independent sensitivity to sub-GeV dark matte…
Large-scale detector testing for the GAPS Si(Li) Tracker
Mengjiao Xiao, Achim Stoessl, Brandon Roach +17
Lithium-drifted silicon [Si(Li)] has been used for decades as an ionizing radiation detector in nuclear, particle, and astrophysical experiments, though such detectors have frequen…
Passivation of Si(Li) detectors operated above cryogenic temperatures for space-based applications
Nathan Saffold, Field Rogers, Mengjiao Xiao +12
This work evaluates the viability of polyimide and parylene-C for passivation of lithium-drifted silicon (Si(Li)) detectors. The passivated Si(Li) detectors will form the particle…
