Development of superfluid helium-3 bolometry using nanowire resonators with SQUID readout for the QUEST-DMC experiment
DMC Collaboration, E. Leason, L. V. Levitin +28
Superfluid helium-3 bolometers can be utilised for dark matter direct detection searches. The extremely low heat capacity of the B phase of the superfluid helium-3 at ultra-low tem…
Dark Matter EFT Landscape Probed by QUEST-DMC
DMC Collaboration, N. Darvishi, S. Autti +27
We present the projected sensitivity to non-relativistic Effective Field Theory (EFT) operators for Dark Matter (DM) direct detection using the QUEST-DMC experiment. QUEST-DMC empl…
Position Reconstruction in the DEAP-3600 Dark Matter Search Experiment
The DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +162
In the DEAP-3600 dark matter search experiment, precise reconstruction of the positions of scattering events in liquid argon is key for background rejection and defining a fiducial…
Dark Matter Attenuation Effects: Sensitivity Ceilings for Spin-Dependent and Spin-Independent Interactions
DMC Collaboration, N. Darvishi, J. Smirnov +27
Direct detection experiments aimed at uncovering the elusive nature of dark matter (DM) have made significant progress in probing ever lower cross-sections for DM-nucleon interacti…
Direct Measurement of the Ar Half-life from 3.4 Years of Data with the DEAP-3600 Detector
DEAP Collaboration, P. Adhikari, R. Ajaj +114
The half-life of Ar is measured using the DEAP-3600 detector located 2 km underground at SNOLAB. Between 2016 and 2020, DEAP-3600 used a target mass of (3269 24) kg of…
