Smart-readout of the Skipper-CCD: Achieving Sub-electron Noise Levels in Regions of Interest

Fernando Chierchie, Guillermo Fernandez Moroni, Leandro Stefanazzi +7

The skipper CCD is a special type of charge coupled device in which the readout noise can be reduced to sub-electron levels by averaging independent measurements of the same charge…

SENSEI: Direct-Detection Results on sub-GeV Dark Matter from a New Skipper-CCD

Liron Barak, Itay M. Bloch, Mariano Cababie +20

We present the first direct-detection search for eV-to-GeV dark matter using a new ~2-gram high-resistivity Skipper-CCD from a dedicated fabrication batch that was optimized for da…
