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…
Low Energy Phonon Bursts Created By Fast Neutron Damage
A. Armatol, C. Augier, L. Bergé +67
Solid state athermal phonon calorimeters used in the search for low mass dark matter or coherent neutrino-nucleus interactions have long observed a large excess of events below sev…
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…
Multi-channel, multi-template event reconstruction for SuperCDMS data using machine learning
M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib, D. Alonso-Gonzalez +139
SuperCDMS SNOLAB uses kilogram-scale germanium and silicon detectors to search for dark matter. Each detector has Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) patterned on the top and bottom fac…
