The ZEPLIN-III dark matter detector: performance study using an end-to-end simulation tool
H. M. Araujo, D. Yu. Akimov, G. J. Alner +53
We present results from a GEANT4-based Monte Carlo tool for end-to-end simulations of the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment. ZEPLIN-III is a two-phase detector which measures both…
Charge mobility of discotic mesophases: A multiscale quantum/classical study
J. Kirkpatrick, V. Marcon, J. Nelson +2
A correlation is established between the molecular structure and charge mobility of discotic mesophases of hexabenzocoronene derivatives by combining electronic structure calculati…
Measurements of the Generalized Electric and Magnetic Polarizabilities of the Proton at Low Q2 Using the VCS Reaction
P. Bourgeois, Y. Sato, J. Shaw +34
The mean square polarizability radii of the proton have been measured for the first time in a virtual Compton scattering experiment performed at the MIT-Bates out-of-plane scatteri…
The ZEPLIN-III dark matter detector: instrument design, manufacture and commissioning
D. Yu. Akimov, G. J. Alner, H. M. Araujo +56
We present details of the technical design and manufacture of the ZEPLIN-III dark matter experiment. ZEPLIN-III is a two-phase xenon detector which measures both the scintillation…
SPHEREx 0.75 to 5 m Spectra for a Sequence of Nearby Brown Dwarfs
Zafar Rustamkulov, J. Kirkpatrick, Rachel Akeson +21
The SPHEREx all-sky survey has now measured the R40-100 infrared spectra of thousands of nearby brown dwarfs in the chemically rich 0.75-5 m range. The survey's wide spec…
Machine learning enables completely automatic tuning of a quantum device faster than human experts
H. Moon, D. T. Lennon, J. Kirkpatrick +10
Device variability is a bottleneck for the scalability of semiconductor quantum devices. Increasing device control comes at the cost of a large parameter space that has to be explo…
