Long-Lived Charge Trap Characterization for Rare-Event Searches with Skipper-CCDs
Ansh Desai, Ana M. Botti, Brenda A. Cervantes-Vergara +9
Skipper Charge-Coupled Devices (Skipper-CCDs) are detectors with sub-electron resolution, allowing them to play a critical role in rare-event searches. A major challenge in experim…
In situ cryogenic characterization of proton damage in thick p-channel skipper CCDs
Brandon M. Roach, Brenda Cervantes Vergara, Alex Drlica-Wagner +14
Skipper charge-coupled devices (CCDs) are an offshoot of standard silicon pixel detectors and are capable of performing repeated non-destructive charge measurements, enabling deepl…
Characterization of Spurious Charge in SENSEI Skipper-CCDs
Yikai Wu, Ansh Desai, Sho Uemura +16
Skipper Charge-Coupled Devices (Skipper-CCDs) are a leading technology in the search for sub-GeV dark matter and coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering. A key background for…
Charge Trap Analysis in a SENSEI Skipper-CCD: Understanding Low-Energy Backgrounds in Rare-Event Searches
Agustin Brusco, Bruno Sivilotti, Ana M. Botti +14
Skipper Charge-Coupled Devices (Skipper-CCDs) are ultra-low-threshold detectors capable of detecting energy deposits in silicon at the eV scale. Increasingly used in rare-event sea…
SENSEI: A Search for Diurnal Modulation in sub-GeV Dark Matter Scattering
Itay M. Bloch, Ana M. Botti, Mariano Cababie +28
Dark matter particles with sufficiently large interactions with ordinary matter can scatter in the Earth's atmosphere and crust before reaching an underground detector. This Earth-…
SENSEI at SNOLAB: Single-Electron Event Rate and Implications for Dark Matter
Itay M. Bloch, Ana M. Botti, Mariano Cababie +27
We present results from data acquired by the SENSEI experiment at SNOLAB after a major upgrade in May 2023, which includes deploying 16 new sensors and replacing the copper trays t…
Studying single-electron traps in newly fabricated Skipper-CCDs for the Oscura experiment using the pocket-pumping technique
S. E. Perez, B. A. Cervantes-Vergara, J. Estrada +3
Understanding and characterizing very low-energy (eV) background sources is a must in rare-event searches. Oscura, an experiment aiming to probe electron recoils from sub-GeV…
SENSEI: First Direct-Detection Results on sub-GeV Dark Matter from SENSEI at SNOLAB
SENSEI Collaboration, Prakruth Adari, Itay M. Bloch +34
We present the first results from a dark matter search using six Skipper-CCDs in the SENSEI detector operating at SNOLAB. We employ a bias-mitigation technique of hiding approximat…
Confirmation of the spectral excess in DAMIC at SNOLAB with skipper CCDs
A. Aguilar-Arevalo, I. Arnquist, N. Avalos +69
We present results from a 3.25 kg-day target exposure of two silicon charge-coupled devices (CCDs), each with 24 megapixels and skipper readout, deployed in the DAMIC setup at SNOL…
