Radiopurity material assays and radiation exposure projections for superconducting qubit measurements at SNOLAB
Y. Ahmed, B. Binoy, R. Bunker +21
Interactions of cosmic rays and other forms of ionizing radiation pose a significant challenge to the reliable operation of state-of-the-art quantum devices and error correction in…
Multi-channel, multi-template event reconstruction for SuperCDMS data using machine learning
M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib, D. Alonso-Gonzalez +139
SuperCDMS SNOLAB uses kilogram-scale germanium and silicon detectors to search for dark matter. Each detector has Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) patterned on the top and bottom fac…
Low-Energy Calibration of SuperCDMS HVeV Cryogenic Silicon Calorimeters Using Compton Steps
SuperCDMS Collaboration, M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib +148
Cryogenic calorimeters for low-mass dark matter searches have achieved sub-eV energy resolutions, driving advances in both low-energy calibration techniques and our understanding o…
First measurement of the nuclear-recoil ionization yield in silicon at 100 eV
M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib, D. Alonso +137
We measured the nuclear--recoil ionization yield in silicon with a cryogenic phonon-sensitive gram-scale detector. Neutrons from a mono-energetic beam scatter off of the silicon nu…
Development of a large-mass, low-threshold detector system with simultaneous measurements of athermal phonons and scintillation light
M. Chaudhuri, G. Agnolet, V. Iyer +10
We have combined two low-threshold detector technologies to develop a large-mass, low-threshold detector system that simultaneously measures the athermal phonons in a sapphire dete…
Large-mass, low-threshold sapphire detector for rare event searches
S. Verma, S. Maludze, M. Lee +12
Low mass nuclear recoil dark matter and coherent-elastic-neutrino-nucleus-scattering (CENNS) searches confront similar challenges in choosing ultra-low threshold and large-mass det…
A Strategy for Low-Mass Dark Matter Searches with Cryogenic Detectors in the SuperCDMS SNOLAB Facility
SuperCDMS Collaboration, M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib +125
The SuperCDMS Collaboration is currently building SuperCDMS SNOLAB, a dark matter search focused on nucleon-coupled dark matter in the 1-5 GeV/c mass range. Looking to the futu…
A novel active veto prototype detector with an inner target for improved rare event searches
M. Chaudhuri, A. Jastram, G. Agnolet +13
We report the fabrication and performance of an annular, cryogenic, phonon-mediated veto detector that can host an inner target detector, allowing substantial reduction in radiogen…
Ionization yield measurement in a germanium CDMSlite detector using photo-neutron sources
SuperCDMS Collaboration, M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib +126
Two photo-neutron sources, YBe and SbBe, have been used to investigate the ionization yield of nuclear recoils in the CDMSlite germanium detectors by the…
Large-mass single-electron-resolution detector for dark matter and neutrino elastic interaction searches
V. Iyer, N. Mirabolfathi, G. Agnolet +10
Large mass single-electron-resolution solid state detectors are desirable to search for low mass dark matter candidates and to measure coherent elastic neutrino nucleus scattering…
