Broadband phonon production from axion absorption
Itay M. Bloch, Simon Knapen, Amalia Madden +1
We show that axion dark matter in the range meV 100 meV can incoherently excite phonons in crystal targets with unpolarised nuclear spins. This can occur thr…
SENSEI at SNOLAB: Single-Electron Event Rate and Implications for Dark Matter
Itay M. Bloch, Ana M. Botti, Mariano Cababie +27
We present results from data acquired by the SENSEI experiment at SNOLAB after a major upgrade in May 2023, which includes deploying 16 new sensors and replacing the copper trays t…
A Rotating-Wave Comagnetometer Detector for Particle Physics
Itay M. Bloch, Or Katz
Many extensions of the Standard Model propose the existence of new particles or forces, aiming to answer mysteries such as the identity of the elusive dark matter. Atomic-based det…
Looking for WIMPs through the neutrino fogs
Itay M. Bloch, Salvatore Bottaro, Diego Redigolo +1
We revisit the expected sensitivity of large-scale xenon detectors to Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). Assuming current primary noise sources can be mitigated, we find…
