Low-threshold response of a scintillating xenon bubble chamber to nuclear and electronic recoils
E. Alfonso-Pita, E. Behnke, M. Bressler +29
A device filled with pure xenon first demonstrated the ability to operate simultaneously as a bubble chamber and scintillation detector in 2017. Initial results from data taken at…
Batch VUV4 Characterization for the SBC-LAr10 scintillating bubble chamber
H. Hawley-Herrera, E. Alfonso-Pita, E. Behnke +28
The Scintillating Bubble Chamber (SBC) collaboration purchased 32 Hamamatsu VUV4 silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) for use in SBC-LAr10, a bubble chamber containing 10~kg of liquid…
Snowmass 2021 Scintillating Bubble Chambers: Liquid-noble Bubble Chambers for Dark Matter and CENS Detection
E. Alfonso-Pita, M. Baker, E. Behnke +42
The Scintillating Bubble Chamber (SBC) Collaboration is developing liquid-noble bubble chambers for the quasi-background-free detection of low-mass (GeV-scale) dark matter and cohe…
Determining the bubble nucleation efficiency of low-energy nuclear recoils in superheated CF dark matter detectors
B. Ali, I. J. Arnquist, D. Baxter +54
The bubble nucleation efficiency of low-energy nuclear recoils in superheated liquids plays a crucial role in interpreting results from direct searches for weakly interacting massi…
A direct test of Auger cascade induced nucleation from heavy element contamination in CF bubble chambers
M. Bressler, N. Lamb, R. Neilson +1
Understanding and quantifying the gamma-induced bubble nucleation background in clean nuclear recoil detection bubble chambers is of utmost importance to bubble chamber based dark…
Data-Driven Modeling of Electron Recoil Nucleation in PICO CF Bubble Chambers
C. Amole, M. Ardid, I. J. Arnquist +76
The primary advantage of moderately superheated bubble chamber detectors is their simultaneous sensitivity to nuclear recoils from WIMP dark matter and insensitivity to electron re…
