Solar Neutrinos in Cryogenic Detectors
A. Bento, A. Bertolini, L. Canonica +13
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) poses an irreducible background in the search for dark matter-nucleus elastic scatterings, which is commonly known as the ne…
Optimisation of TES design for the CRESST experiment
G. Angloher, S. Banik, A. Bento +54
The CRESST experiment aims at the direct detection of sub-GeV dark matter particles via elastic scattering off nuclei in different target crystals at cryogenic temperatures. The ad…
Observation of a low energy nuclear recoil peak in the neutron calibration data of an AlO crystal in CRESST-III
CRESST Collaboration, G. Angloher, S. Banik +59
The current generation of cryogenic solid state detectors used in direct dark matter and CE\textnu NS searches typically reach energy thresholds of (10)eV for nucl…
The SWEET project: probing sugar crystals for direct dark matter searches
A. Bento, F. Casadei, E. Cipelli +11
Several experiments searching for direct dark matter interactions aim to achieve unprecedented sensitivity to sub-GeV/c dark matter masses through elastic scattering with nucle…
ImpCresst -- A versatile simulation tool focusing on solid-state detectors at keV energies
G. Angloher, S. Banik, A. Bento +57
We present ImpCresst, a Geant4-based Monte Carlo tool to simulate backgrounds from natural and cosmogenic radionuclides, and calibration signals in solid-state detectors and their…
The CRESST experiment: towards the next-generation of sub-GeV direct dark matter detection
G. Angloher, S. Banik, A. Bento +54
Direct detection experiments have established the most stringent constraints on potential interactions between particle candidates for relic, thermal dark matter and Standard Model…
