Two-Way Quantum Time Transfer: A Method for Daytime Space-Earth Links
Randy Lafler, Mark L. Eickhoff, Scott C. Newey +7
High-precision remote clock synchronization is crucial for many classical and quantum network applications. Evaluating options for space-Earth links, we find that traditional solut…
Quantum time transfer: a practical method for lossy and noisy channels
Randy Lafler, R. Nicholas Lanning
Timing requirements for long-range quantum networking are driven by the necessity of synchronizing the arrival of photons, from independent sources, for Bell-state measurements. Th…
An Optimal Polarization-Entanglement Source: Frequency-Converted SPDC with Degeneracy, Indistinguishability, and Ultra-High Purity Configurable Over a Large Spectral Range
Randy Lafler, R. Nicholas Lanning
Modeling and simulations of entanglement-based quantum-networking protocols commonly assume perfect entangled states. Some investigations have been performed which show how imperfe…
Improved Sensitivity of the DRIFT-IId Directional Dark Matter Experiment using Machine Learning
J. B. R. Battat, C. Eldridge, A. C. Ezeribe +18
We demonstrate a new type of analysis for the DRIFT-IId directional dark matter detector using a machine learning algorithm called a Random Forest Classifier. The analysis labels e…
Measurement of directional range components of nuclear recoil tracks in a fiducialised dark matter detector
J. B. R. Battat, E. J. Daw, A. C. Ezeribe +16
We present results from the first measurement of axial range components of fiducialized neutron induced nuclear recoil tracks using the DRIFT directional dark matter detector. Nucl…
Low Threshold Results and Limits from the DRIFT Directional Dark Matter Detector
J. B. R. Battat, A. C. Ezeribe, J. -L. Gauvreau +18
We present results from a 54.7 live-day shielded run of the DRIFT-IId detector, the world's most sensitive, directional, dark matter detector. Several improvements were made relati…
The novel properties of SF for directional dark matter experiments
N. S. Phan, R. Lafler, R. J. Lauer +4
SF is an inert and electronegative gas that has a long history of use in high voltage insulation and numerous other industrial applications. Although SF is used as a tr…
First measurement of nuclear recoil head-tail sense in a fiducialised WIMP dark matter detector
J. B. R. Battat, E. Daw, A. C. Ezeribe +17
Recent computational results suggest that directional dark matter detectors have potential to probe for WIMP dark matter particles below the neutrino floor. The DRIFT-IId detector…
Background Assay and Rejection in DRIFT
Jeff Brack, Ed Daw, Alexei Dorofeev +22
The DRIFT-IId dark matter detector is a m-scale low-pressure TPC with directional sensitivity to WIMP-induced nuclear recoils. Its primary backgrounds were due to alpha decays…
Long-term study of backgrounds in the DRIFT-II directional dark matter experiment
J. Brack, E. Daw, A. Dorofeev +26
Low-pressure gas Time Projection Chambers being developed for directional dark matter searches offer a technology with strong particle identification capability combined with the p…
