Light-tight skipper-CCDs for X-ray detection in space
Ana M. Botti, Yikai Wu, Brenda Cervantes +6
Skipper Charge-Coupled Devices (skipper-CCDs) are pixelated silicon detectors with deep sub-electron resolution. Their radiation hardness and capability to reconstruct energy depos…
X-ray characterization of fully-depleted p-channel Skipper-CCDs for the DarkNESS mission
Phoenix Alpine, Ana M. Botti, Brenda A. Cervantes-Vergara +11
The Dark matter Nanosatellite Equipped with Skipper Sensors (DarkNESS) mission is a 6U CubeSat designed to search for X-ray lines from decaying dark matter using Skipper-CCDs. Thic…
DarkNESS: A skipper-CCD NanoSatellite for Dark Matter Searches
Phoenix Alpine, Samriddhi Bhatia, Ana M. Botti +16
The Dark matter Nanosatellite Equipped with Skipper Sensors (DarkNESS) deploys a recently developed skipper-CCD architecture with sub-electron readout noise in low Earth orbit (LEO…
Readout Optimization of Multi-Amplifier Sensing Charge-Coupled Devices for Single-Quantum Measurement
Ana M. Botti, Brenda A. Cervantes-Vergara, Claudio R. Chavez +15
The non-destructive readout capability of the Skipper Charge Coupled Device (CCD) has been demonstrated to reduce the noise limitation of conventional silicon devices to levels tha…
Astronomical Spectroscopy with Skipper CCDs: First Results from a Skipper CCD Focal Plane Prototype at SIFS
Edgar Marrufo Villalpando, Alex Drlica-Wagner, Brandon Roach +22
We present the first on-sky results from an ultra-low-readout-noise Skipper CCD focal plane prototype for the SOAR Integral Field Spectrograph (SIFS). The Skipper CCD focal plane c…
