Characterization of a CsI(Tl) Scintillator Coupled to a SiPM at Cryogenic Temperatures
M. Mirzakhani, R. Mahapatra, M. Platt
We report on the scintillation characterization of a 1 cm^3 CsI(Tl) crystal coupled to a 6 x 6 mm^2 SiPM read out with a custom transimpedance amplifier at cryogenic temperatures.…
CENS Search with Cryogenic Sapphire Detectors at MINER: Results from the TRIGA reactor data and Future Sensitivity at HFIR
D. Mondal, W. Baker, M. Chaudhuri +20
We report on a search for coherent elastic neutrino--nucleus scattering (CENS) using cryogenic sapphire (AlO) detectors deployed at the Mitchell Institute Neutrino Exper…
MINER Reactor Based Search for Axion-Like Particles Using Sapphire (Al2O3) Detectors
M. Mirzakhani, W. Baker, M. Chaudhuri +20
The absence of definitive results for WIMP dark matter has sparked growing interest in alternative dark matter candidates, such as axions and Axion-Like Particles (ALPs), which als…
First Limits on Light Dark Matter Interactions in a Low Threshold Two Channel Athermal Phonon Detector from the TESSERACT Collaboration
C. L. Chang, Y. -Y. Chang, L. Chaplinsky +45
We present results of a search for spin-independent dark matter-nucleon interactions in a 1 cm by 1 mm thick (0.233 gram) high-resolution silicon athermal phonon detector opera…
Design Studies Of A Pulsed Quasimonoenergetic 2-keV Neutron Source For Calibration Of Low Threshold Dark Matter Detectors
L. Chaplinsky, S. Fiorucci, C. W. Fink +25
We describe design studies for a pulsed quasi-monoenergetic 2-keV neutron source for calibration of sub-keV nuclear recoils. Such a calibration is required for detectors sensitive…
Reactor-based Search for Axion-Like Particles using CsI(Tl) Detector
S. Sahoo, S. Verma, M. Mirzakhani +5
The absence of conclusive signals in weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) searches has motivated increased interest in alternative dark matter candidates such as axions and a…
Improved Modelling of Detector Response Effects in Phonon-based Crystal Detectors used for Dark Matter Searches
M. J. Wilson, A. Zaytsev, B. von Krosigk +20
Various dark matter search experiments employ phonon-based crystal detectors operated at cryogenic temperatures. Some of these detectors, including certain silicon detectors used b…
First Demonstration of the HeRALD Superfluid Helium Detector Concept
R. Anthony-Petersen, A. Biekert, C. L. Chang +33
The SPICE/HeRALD collaboration is performing R&D to enable studies of sub-GeV dark matter models using a variety of target materials. Here we report our recent progress on instrume…
Development of a large-mass, low-threshold detector system with simultaneous measurements of athermal phonons and scintillation light
M. Chaudhuri, G. Agnolet, V. Iyer +10
We have combined two low-threshold detector technologies to develop a large-mass, low-threshold detector system that simultaneously measures the athermal phonons in a sapphire dete…
Observation of Time-Dependent Internal Charge Amplification in a Planar Germanium Detector at Cryogenic Temperature
P. Acharya, M. Fritts, D. -M. Mei +4
For the first time, time-dependent internal charge amplification through impact ionization has been observed in a planar germanium (Ge) detector operated at cryogenic temperature.…
Large-mass, low-threshold sapphire detector for rare event searches
S. Verma, S. Maludze, M. Lee +12
Low mass nuclear recoil dark matter and coherent-elastic-neutrino-nucleus-scattering (CENNS) searches confront similar challenges in choosing ultra-low threshold and large-mass det…
A backing detector for order-keV neutrons
A. Biekert, L. Chaplinsky, C. W. Fink +23
We have designed and tested a large-area (0.15~m) neutron detector based on neutron capture on \ce{^{6}Li}. The neutron detector design has been optimized for the purpose of ta…
