Identification of backgrounds in the EDELWEISS-I dark matter search experiment
S. Fiorucci, A. Benoit, L. Berge +36
This paper presents our interpretation and understanding of the different backgrounds in the EDELWEISS-I data sets. We analyze in detail the several populations observed, which inc…
Measurement of the response of heat-and-ionization germanium detectors to nuclear recoils
A. Benoit, L. Berge, J. Blumer +34
The heat quenching factor Q' (the ratio of the heat signals produced by nuclear and electron recoils of equal energy) of the heat-and-ionization germanium bolometers used by the ED…
Archeops In-flight Performance, Data Processing and Map Making
J. F. Macias-Perez, G. Lagache, B. Maffei +69
Archeops is a balloon--borne experiment widely inspired by the Planck satellite and by its High Frequency Instrument (HFI). It is mainly dedicated to measure the Cosmic Microwave B…
Critical revision of the ZEPLIN-I sensitivity to WIMP interactions
A. Benoit, M. Chapellier, G. Chardin +10
The ZEPLIN collaboration has recently published its first result presenting a maximum sensitivity of picobarn for a WIMP mass of 60 GeV. The analysis…
Final results of the EDELWEISS-I dark matter search with cryogenic heat-and-ionization Ge detectors
V. Sanglard, A. Benoit, L. Berge +40
The final results of the EDELWEISS-I dark matter search using cryogenic heat-and-ionization Ge detectors are presented. The final data sample corresponds to an increase by a factor…
Temperature and polarization angular power spectra of Galactic dust radiation at 353 GHz as measured by Archeops
N. Ponthieu, J. F. Macías-Pérez, M. Tristram +47
We present the first measurement of temperature and polarization angular power spectra of the diffuse emission of Galactic dust at 353 GHz as seen by Archeops on 20% of the sky. Th…
