Submillimetre point sources from the Archeops experiment: Very Cold Clumps in the Galactic Plane
F. -X. Desert, J. F. Macias-Perez, F. Mayet +7
Archeops is a balloon-borne experiment, mainly designed to measure the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) temperature anisotropies at high angular resolution (~ 12 arcminutes). By-p…
Identification of backgrounds in the EDELWEISS-I dark matter search experiment
S. Fiorucci, A. Benoit, L. Berge +36
This paper presents our interpretation and understanding of the different backgrounds in the EDELWEISS-I data sets. We analyze in detail the several populations observed, which inc…
Measurement of the response of heat-and-ionization germanium detectors to nuclear recoils
A. Benoit, L. Berge, J. Blumer +34
The heat quenching factor Q' (the ratio of the heat signals produced by nuclear and electron recoils of equal energy) of the heat-and-ionization germanium bolometers used by the ED…
Archeops In-flight Performance, Data Processing and Map Making
J. F. Macias-Perez, G. Lagache, B. Maffei +69
Archeops is a balloon--borne experiment widely inspired by the Planck satellite and by its High Frequency Instrument (HFI). It is mainly dedicated to measure the Cosmic Microwave B…
Critical revision of the ZEPLIN-I sensitivity to WIMP interactions
A. Benoit, M. Chapellier, G. Chardin +10
The ZEPLIN collaboration has recently published its first result presenting a maximum sensitivity of picobarn for a WIMP mass of 60 GeV. The analysis…
Charting the New Frontier of the Cosmic Microwave Background Polarization
F. R. Bouchet, A. Benoit, Ph. Camus +3
The anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background are a gold mine for cosmology and fundamental physics. ESA's Planck satellite should soon extract all information from the tempe…
