What surfaces in the operation of noble liquids dark matter detectors
Sergey Pereverzev
Electron and ion accumulation atop liquid can lead to formation of macroscopic charged hillocks and electrospraying, small signal suppression by charged crust. Design changes for l…
Excess backgrounds in Dark Matter detectors and physics of glasses
Sergey Pereverzev
In solid-state dark matter detectors, energy accumulation due to ionizing radiation should produce delayed low-energy background similar to the background produced by energy deposi…
Snowmass Instrumentation Frontier IF08 Topical Group Report: Noble Element Detectors
Carl Eric Dahl, Roxanne Guenette, Jennifer L. Raaf +39
Particle detectors making use of noble elements in gaseous, liquid, or solid phases are prevalent in neutrino and dark matter experiments and are also used to a lesser extent in co…
Thermodynamic Stability of Xenon-Doped Liquid Argon Detectors
Ethan P. Bernard, Eli Mizrachi, James Kingston +12
Liquid argon detectors are employed in a wide variety of nuclear and particle physics experiments. The addition of small quantities of xenon to argon modifies its scintillation, io…
Production and suppression of delayed light in NaI
F. Sutanto, J. Xu, S. Pereverzev +1
We investigate a hypothesis that energy accumulation and the subsequent release in NaI(Tl) may lead to pulse-like events in the few-keV energy regime, a phenomenon suggested by the…
Detecting Low-Energy Interactions and the Effects of Energy Accumulation in Materials
Sergey Pereverzev
We hypothesize that avalanche-like releases of energy accumulated in materials due to radioactivity and other sources can produce parasitic background in dark matter particles sear…
LBECA: A Low Background Electron Counting Apparatus for Sub-GeV Dark Matter Detection
A. Bernstein, M. Clark, R. Essig +12
Two-phase noble liquid detectors, with large target masses and effective background reduction, are currently leading the dark matter direct detection for WIMP masses above a few Ge…
Measurement of the ionization yield from nuclear recoils in liquid xenon between 0.3 -- 6 keV with single-ionization-electron sensitivity
Brian Lenardo, Jingke Xu, Sergey Pereverzev +12
Dual-phase xenon TPC detectors are a highly scalable and widely used technology to search for low-energy nuclear recoil signals from WIMP dark matter or coherent nuclear scattering…
Electron extraction efficiency study for dual-phase xenon dark matter experiments
Jingke Xu, Sergey Pereverzev, Brian Lenardo +5
Dual-phase xenon detectors are widely used in dark matter direct detection experiments, and have demonstrated the highest sensitivities to a variety of dark matter interactions. Ho…
First measurement of the ionization yield of nuclear recoils in liquid argon
T. H. Joshi, S. Sangiorgio, A. Bernstein +9
This Letter details a measurement of the ionization yield () of 6.7 keV atoms stopping in a liquid argon detector. The of 3.6-6.3 detected $e^{-}/\mbox{keV}$,…
Energy-resolved detection of single infrared photons with λ = 8 μm using a superconducting microbolometer
Boris S. Karasik, Sergey V. Pereverzev, Alexander Soibel +4
We report on the detection of single photons with λ = 8 μm using a superconducting hot-electron microbolometer. The sensing element is a titanium transition-edge sensor with a volu…
