Two-Laser Heterodyne Detection System for ALPS II
Henry Frädrich, Aaron D. Spector, Axel Lindner +1
The Any Light Particle Search II employs a highly sensitive heterodyne detection system to measure an ultra-weak electromagnetic field that is reconverted from axions inside a rege…
Overview and design optimization of a custom hybrid X-ray telescope for the International Axion Observatory (IAXO)
Yue Yu, Jooyun Woo, Ipek Altunyurt +34
We present the design optimization for maximizing the effective area of a custom X-ray optic for the International Axion Observatory (IAXO) and BabyIAXO, including its novel hybrid…
Characterization of a Two-Channel Optical and Near-infrared Transition Edge Sensor System for Rare-Event Searches
Manuel Meyer, Katharina-Sophie Isleif, Friederike Januschek +5
Transition edge sensors (TESs) are superconducting energy-resolving microcalorimeters that have demonstrated low background rates as well as quantum efficiencies close to unity for…
Any Light Particle Searches with ALPS II: Description of the first science campaign
Aaron D. Spector, Daniel C. Brotherton, Ayman Hallal +23
From February to May of 2024 the Any Light Particle Search II (ALPS II) conducted its first science campaign using the `light-shining-through-a-wall' technique to search for pseudo…
Any Light Particle Searches with ALPS II: first science results
Daniel C. Brotherton, Zachary R. Bush, Sandy Croatto +37
The light-shining-through-a-wall experiment ALPS II at DESY in Hamburg searched for axions and similar lightweight particles in its first science campaign from February to May 2024…
Binary Classification of Light and Dark Time Traces of a Transition Edge Sensor Using Convolutional Neural Networks
Elmeri Rivasto, Katharina-Sophie Isleif, Friederike Januschek +5
The Any Light Particle Search II (ALPS II) is a light shining through a wall experiment probing the existence of axions and axion-like particles using a 1064 nm laser source. While…
First direct search for light dark matter interactions in a transition-edge sensor
Christina Schwemmbauer, Guy Daniel Hadas, Yonit Hochberg +9
We propose the use of transition-edge sensor (TES) single-photon detectors as a simultaneous target and sensor for direct dark matter searches, and report results from the first se…
Simulation and measurement of Black Body Radiation background in a Transition Edge Sensor
José Alejandro Rubiera Gimeno, Katharina-Sophie Isleif, Friederike Januschek +6
The Any Light Particle Search II (ALPS II) experiment at DESY, Hamburg, is a Light-Shining-through-a-Wall (LSW) experiment aiming to probe the existence of axions and axion-like pa…
Design and Performance of the ALPS II Regeneration Cavity
Todd Kozlowski, Li-Wei Wei, Aaron D. Spector +12
The Regeneration Cavity (RC) is a critical component of the Any Light Particle Search II (ALPS II) experiment. It increases the signal from possible axions and axion-like particles…
Simulations for direct dark matter searches using ALPS II's TES detection system
Christina Schwemmbauer, Yonit Hochberg, Katharina-Sophie Isleif +6
Transition Edge Sensors (TES) are superconducting microcalorimeters that can be used for single-photon detection with extremely low backgrounds. When they are within their supercon…
Characterization, 1064 nm photon signals and background events of a tungsten TES detector for the ALPS experiment
Jan Dreyling-Eschweiler, Noemie Bastidon, Babette Döbrich +3
The high efficiency, low-background, and single-photon detection with transition-edge sensors (TES) is making this type of detector attractive in widely different types of applicat…
