Skipper-CCD Sensors for the Oscura Experiment: Requirements and Preliminary Tests
Brenda A. Cervantes-Vergara, Santiago Perez, Juan Estrada +52
Oscura is a proposed multi-kg skipper-CCD experiment designed for a dark matter (DM) direct detection search that will reach unprecedented sensitivity to sub-GeV DM-electron intera…
Analog pile-up circuit technique using a single capacitor for the readout of Skipper-CCD detectors
Miguel Sofo Haro, Claudio Chavez, Jose Lipovetzky +8
With Skipper-CCD detectors it is possible to take multiple samples of the charge packet collected on each pixel. After averaging the samples, the noise can be extremely reduced all…
SENSEI: Characterization of Single-Electron Events Using a Skipper-CCD
Liron Barak, Itay M. Bloch, Ana Botti +22
We use a science-grade Skipper Charge Coupled Device (Skipper-CCD) operating in a low-radiation background environment to develop a semi-empirical model that characterizes the orig…
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…
Absolute measurement of the Fano factor using a Skipper-CCD
Dario Rodrigues, Kevin Andersson, Mariano Cababie +11
Skipper-CCD can achieve deep sub-electron readout noise making possible the absolute determination of the exact number of ionized electrons in a large range, from 0 to above 1900 e…
