Geant4-based electromagnetic background model for the CRESST dark matter experiment
CRESST Collaboration, A. H. Abdelhameed, G. Angloher +51
The CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) dark matter search experiment aims for the detection of dark matter particles via elastic scattering off…
First results on sub-GeV spin-dependent dark matter interactions with Li
A. H. Abdelhameed, G. Angloher, P. Bauer +53
In this work, we want to highlight the potential of lithium as a target for spin-dependent dark matter search in cryogenic experiments, with a special focus on the low-mass region…
In-situ study of light production and transport in phonon/light detector modules for dark matter search
M. Kiefer, G. Angloher, A. Bento +38
The CRESST experiment (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) searches for dark matter via the phonon and light signals of elastic scattering processes in s…
Detecting the Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background with LENA
Randolph Möllenberg, Franz von Feilitzsch, Dominikus Hellgartner +5
LENA (Low Energy Neutrino Astronomy) has been proposed as a next generation 50 kt liquid scintillator detector. Its large target mass allows to search for the Diffuse Supernova Neu…
Radiopurity of CaWO Crystals for Direct Dark Matter Search with CRESST and EURECA
A. Münster, M. v. Sivers, G. Angloher +38
The direct dark matter search experiment CRESST uses scintillating CaWO single crystals as targets for possible WIMP scatterings. An intrinsic radioactive contamination of the…
Energy-Dependent Light Quenching in CaWO Crystals at mK Temperatures
R. Strauss, G. Angloher, A. Bento +39
Scintillating CaWO single crystals are a promising multi-element target for rare-event searches and are currently used in the direct Dark Matter experiment CRESST (Cryogenic Ra…
The next-generation liquid-scintillator neutrino observatory LENA
Michael Wurm, John F. Beacom, Leonid B. Bezrukov +74
We propose the liquid-scintillator detector LENA (Low Energy Neutrino Astronomy) as a next-generation neutrino observatory on the scale of 50 kt. The outstanding successes of the B…
Status of the CRESST Dark Matter Search
J. Schmaler, G. Angloher, M. Bauer +38
The CRESST experiment aims for a detection of dark matter in the form of WIMPs. These particles are expected to scatter elastically off the nuclei of a target material, thereby dep…
Composite CaWO4 Detectors for the CRESST-II Experiment
M. Kiefer, G. Angloher, M. Bauer +38
CRESST-II, standing for Cryogenic Rare Events Search with Superconducting Thermometers phase II, is an experiment searching for Dark Matter. In the LNGS facility in Gran Sasso, Ita…
Electron and Gamma Background in CRESST Detectors
R. F. Lang, G. Angloher, M. Bauer +39
The CRESST experiment monitors 300g CaWO_4 crystals as targets for particle interactions in an ultra low background environment. In this paper, we analyze the background spectra th…
Discrimination of Recoil Backgrounds in Scintillating Calorimeters
R. F. Lang, G. Angloher, M. Bauer +38
The alpha decay of $\n{{}^{210}Po}$ is a dangerous background to rare event searches. Here, we describe observations related to this alpha decay in the Cryogenic Rare Event Search…
