DarkNESS: developing a skipper-CCD instrument to search for Dark Matter from Low Earth Orbit
Phoenix Alpine, Samriddhi Bhatia, Fernando Chierchie +8
The DarkNESS (Dark Matter Nano-satellite Equipped with Skipper Sensors) mission aims to deploy a skipper-CCD CubeSat Observatory to search for dark matter (DM) from Low Earth Orbit…
A multi-channel silicon package for large-scale skipper-CCD experiments
A. M. Botti, C. Chavez, M. Sofo-Haro +10
The next generation of experiments for rare-event searches based on skipper Charge Coupled Devices (skipper-CCDs) presents new challenges for the sensor packaging and readout. Scal…
Astronomical Spectroscopy with Skipper CCDs: First Results from a Skipper CCD Focal Plane Prototype at SIFS
Edgar Marrufo Villalpando, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Brandon Roach +22
We present the first on-sky results from an ultra-low-readout-noise Skipper CCD focal plane prototype for the SOAR Integral Field Spectrograph (SIFS). The Skipper CCD focal plane c…
Sixteen Multiple-Amplifier Sensing Charge-Coupled Devices and Characterization Techniques Targeting the Next Generation of Astronomical Instruments
Agustin J. Lapi, Blas J. Irigoyen Gimenez, Miqueas E. Gamero +8
We present a candidate sensor for future spectroscopic applications, such as a Stage-5 Spectroscopic Survey Experiment or the Habitable Worlds Observatory. This type of charge-coup…
Search for reactor-produced millicharged particles with Skipper-CCDs at the CONNIE and Atucha-II experiments
Alexis A. Aguilar-Arevalo, Nicolas Avalos, Pablo Bellino +37
Millicharged particles, proposed by various extensions of the standard model, can be created in pairs by high-energy photons within nuclear reactors and can interact electromagneti…
Searches for CEνNS and Physics beyond the Standard Model using Skipper-CCDs at CONNIE
Alexis A. Aguilar-Arevalo, Nicolas Avalos, Xavier Bertou +31
The Coherent Neutrino-Nucleus Interaction Experiment (CONNIE) aims to detect the coherent scattering (CENS) of reactor antineutrinos off silicon nuclei using thick fully-deplete…
Skipper-in-CMOS: Non-Destructive Readout with Sub-Electron Noise Performance for Pixel Detectors
Agustin J. Lapi, Miguel Sofo-Haro, Benjamin C. Parpillon +15
The Skipper-in-CMOS image sensor integrates the non-destructive readout capability of Skipper Charge Coupled Devices (Skipper-CCDs) with the high conversion gain of a pinned photod…
