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…
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…
Spontaneous generation of athermal phonon bursts within bulk silicon causing excess noise, low energy background events and quasiparticle poisoning in superconducting sensors
C. L. Chang, Y. -Y. Chang, M. Garcia-Sciveres +25
Solid state phonon detectors used in the search for dark matter and coherent neutrino nucleus interactions (CENS) require excellent energy resolution (eV-scale or below) and lo…
Characterization of mini-CryoCube detectors from the Ricochet experiment commissioning at the Institut Laue-Langevin
Antoine Armatol, Corinne Augier, Louis Bailly-Salins +83
The Ricochet experiment aims to measure the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering process from antineutrinos emitted by a research nuclear reactor operated by the Institut L…
Low Energy Backgrounds and Excess Noise in a Two-Channel Low-Threshold Calorimeter
Robin Anthony-Petersen, Clarence L. Chang, Yen-Yung Chang +29
We describe observations of low energy excess (LEE) events, background events observed in all light dark matter direct detection calorimeters, and noise in a Transition Edge Sensor…
