SENSEI: Direct-Detection Results on sub-GeV Dark Matter from a New Skipper-CCD
Liron Barak, Itay M. Bloch, Mariano Cababie +20
We present the first direct-detection search for eV-to-GeV dark matter using a new ~2-gram high-resistivity Skipper-CCD from a dedicated fabrication batch that was optimized for da…
The Cosmological Evolution of Self-interacting Dark Matter
Daniel Egana-Ugrinovic, Rouven Essig, Daniel Gift +1
We study the evolution of cosmological perturbations in dark-matter models with elastic and velocity-independent self interactions. Such interactions are imprinted in the matter-po…
SENSEI: Direct-Detection Constraints on Sub-GeV Dark Matter from a Shallow Underground Run Using a Prototype Skipper-CCD
Orr Abramoff, Liron Barak, Itay M. Bloch +14
We present new direct-detection constraints on eV-to-GeV dark matter interacting with electrons using a prototype detector of the Sub-Electron-Noise Skipper-CCD Experimental Instru…
SENSEI: Characterization of Single-Electron Events Using a Skipper-CCD
Liron Barak, Itay M. Bloch, Ana Botti +22
We use a science-grade Skipper Charge Coupled Device (Skipper-CCD) operating in a low-radiation background environment to develop a semi-empirical model that characterizes the orig…
