Time Evolution of Electric Fields in CDMS Detectors

S. W. Leman, D. Brandt, P. L. Brink +19

The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) utilizes large mass, 3" diameter x 1" thick target masses as particle detectors. The target is instrumented with both phonon and ionization…

Phonon Quasidiffusion in Cryogenic Dark Matter Search Large Germanium Detectors

S. W. Leman, B. Cabrera, K. A. McCarthy +11

We present results on quasidiffusion studies in large, 3 inch diameter, 1 inch thick [100] high purity germanium crystals, cooled to 50 mK in the vacuum of a dilution refrigerator,…

Validation of Phonon Physics in the CDMS Detector Monte Carlo

K. A. McCarthy, S. W. Leman, A. J. Anderson +19

The SuperCDMS collaboration is a dark matter search effort aimed at detecting the scattering of WIMP dark matter from nuclei in cryogenic germanium targets. The CDMS Detector Monte…

Comparison of CDMS [100] and [111] oriented germanium detectors

S. W. Leman, S. A. Hertel, P. Kim +7

The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) utilizes large mass, 3" diameter 1" thick target masses as particle detectors. The target is instrumented with both phonon and ioni…

Monte Carlo Comparisons to a Cryogenic Dark Matter Search Detector with low Transition-Edge-Sensor Transition Temperature

S. W. Leman, K. A. McCarthy, P. L. Brink +13

We present results on phonon quasidiffusion and Transition Edge Sensor (TES) studies in a large, 3 inch diameter, 1 inch thick [100] high purity germanium crystal, cooled to 50 mK…

Entanglement-secured single-qubit quantum secret-sharing

P. Scherpelz, R. Resch, D. Berryrieser +1

In single-qubit quantum secret sharing, a secret is shared between N parties via manipulation and measurement of one qubit at a time. Each qubit is sent to all N parties in sequenc…

Results from a Low-Energy Analysis of the CDMS II Germanium Data

CDMS Collaboration, Z. Ahmed, D. S. Akerib +62

We report results from a reanalysis of data from the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS II) experiment at the Soudan Underground Laboratory. Data taken between October 2006 and Sep…
