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…
Single Electron-Hole Pair Sensitive Silicon Detector with Surface Event Rejection
Ziqing Hong, Runze Ren, Noah Kurinsky +8
We demonstrate single electron-hole pair resolution in a single-sided, contact-free 1 cm by 1 mm thick Si crystal operated at 48 mK, with a baseline energy resolution of 3 eV.…
