Cosmic Ray Boosted Dark Matter in COSINUS: Modeling and Constraints

G. Angloher, M. R. Bharadwaj, A. Böhmer +41

Direct detection of nuclear recoils due to sub-GeV dark matter is challenging because of the small kinetic energy of the light dark matter particles. Although limits down to a few…

COSINUS model-independent sensitivity to the DAMA/LIBRA dark matter signal

G. Angloher, M. R. Bharadwaj, A. Böhmer +40

COSINUS is a dark matter direct detection experiment using NaI crystals as cryogenic scintillating calorimeters. If no signal is observed, this will constrain the dark matter scatt…

Improved sensitivity in the search for rare decays of Gd isotopes

B. Lehnert, S. S. Nagorny, M. Thiesse +5

Gadolinium is widely used in multiple low-background experiments, making its isotopes accessible for rare decay searches both in-situ and through radiopurity screening data. This s…

Double-beta decay of Nd to excited levels of Sm

A. S. Barabash, P. Belli, R. Bernabei +23

The decay of Nd to the first excited 740.5 keV level of Sm was measured over 5.845 yr with the help of a four-crystal low-background HPGe s…

Neutrino flux sensitivity to the next galactic core-collapse supernova in COSINUS

G. Angloher, M. R. Bharadwaj, M. Cababie +39

While neutrinos are often treated as a background for many dark matter experiments, these particles offer a new avenue for physics: the detection of core-collapse supernovae. Super…

Development of large-volume TeO bolometers for the CROSS decay search experiment

F. T. Avignone, A. S. Barabash, V. Berest +36

We report on the development of thermal detectors based on large-size tellurium dioxide crystals (45x45x45 mm), containing tellurium enriched in Te to about 91%, for the CR…
