Any Light Particle Searches with ALPS II: first science results
Daniel C. Brotherton, Zachary R. Bush, Sandy Croatto +37
The light-shining-through-a-wall experiment ALPS II at DESY in Hamburg searched for axions and similar lightweight particles in its first science campaign from February to May 2024…
Simulation and measurement of Black Body Radiation background in a Transition Edge Sensor
José Alejandro Rubiera Gimeno, Katharina-Sophie Isleif, Friederike Januschek +6
The Any Light Particle Search II (ALPS II) experiment at DESY, Hamburg, is a Light-Shining-through-a-Wall (LSW) experiment aiming to probe the existence of axions and axion-like pa…
Simulations for direct dark matter searches using ALPS II's TES detection system
Christina Schwemmbauer, Yonit Hochberg, Katharina-Sophie Isleif +6
Transition Edge Sensors (TES) are superconducting microcalorimeters that can be used for single-photon detection with extremely low backgrounds. When they are within their supercon…
