Calibration and Performance of Germanium High Voltage Detectors for SuperCDMS SNOLAB
M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib, D. Alonso-González +140
As SuperCDMS SNOLAB is getting ready to search for low mass dark matter particles, using cryogenic Ge and Si detectors, a set of six of the new SuperCDMS High Voltage (HV) detector…
Exploring Low Energy Excess in MINER with sapphire detectors using Convolutional Variational Autoencoder (CVAE)
D. Mondal, W. Baker, M. Chaudhuri +19
As cryogenic detectors push toward ever-lower energy thresholds, their sensitivity is increasingly constrained by a persistent low-energy background known as the low-energy excess…
Search for low-mass electron-recoil dark matter using a single-charge sensitive SuperCDMS-HVeV Detector
SuperCDMS Collaboration, M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib +146
We present constraints on low-mass dark matter electron scattering and absorption interactions using a SuperCDMS high-voltage eV-resolution (HVeV) detector. Data were taken undergr…
Low-Energy Calibration of SuperCDMS HVeV Cryogenic Silicon Calorimeters Using Compton Steps
SuperCDMS Collaboration, M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib +148
Cryogenic calorimeters for low-mass dark matter searches have achieved sub-eV energy resolutions, driving advances in both low-energy calibration techniques and our understanding o…
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 Expe…
Novel coincidence detection technique for precision measurement of neutron-capture-induced nuclear recoils
A J Biffl, Gerardo D Gonzalez, A N Villano +1
The lattice dynamics following particle interactions remain not fully understood, and effects from nuclear-recoil interactions in conventional solid-state detectors - such as defec…
