WIMP-Search Results from the Second CDMSlite Run
SuperCDMS Collaboration, R. Agnese, A. J. Anderson +87
The CDMS low ionization threshold experiment (CDMSlite) uses cryogenic germanium detectors operated at a relatively high bias voltage to amplify the phonon signal in the search for…
Studies on the Reduction of Radon Plate-Out
M. Bruemmer, M. Nakib, R. Calkins +2
The decay of common radioactive gases, such as radon, produces stable isotopes by a sequence of daughter particles with varied half-lives. These daughter particles are a significan…
Prototyping an Active Neutron Veto for SuperCDMS
Robert Calkins, Ben Loer
Neutrons, originating cosmogenically or from radioactive decays, can produce signals in dark matter detectors that are indistinguishable from Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (…
Improved WIMP-search reach of the CDMS II germanium data
R. Agnese, A. J. Anderson, M. Asai +86
CDMS II data from the 5-tower runs at the Soudan Underground Laboratory were reprocessed with an improved charge-pulse fitting algorithm. Two new analysis techniques to reject surf…
Dark matter effective field theory scattering in direct detection experiments
K. Schneck, B. Cabrera, D. G. Cerdeno +84
We examine the consequences of the effective field theory (EFT) of dark matter-nucleon scattering for current and proposed direct detection experiments. Exclusion limits on EFT cou…
