Optimisation of TES design for the CRESST experiment
G. Angloher, S. Banik, A. Bento +54
The CRESST experiment aims at the direct detection of sub-GeV dark matter particles via elastic scattering off nuclei in different target crystals at cryogenic temperatures. The ad…
Sensitivity enhancement techniques for cryogenic calorimeters in the NUCLEUS experiment
M. Cappelli, A. Wallach, H. Abele +62
Phonon-mediated cryogenic calorimeters find application in rare event searches due to their intrinsically low energy threshold. Achieving the best sensitivity for this kind of dete…
Prospect of the NUCLEUS Experiment at Chooz for Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering and New Physics Searches
H. Abele, G. Angloher, B. Arnold +67
The NUCLEUS experiment aims to measure coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CENS) at unprecedentedly low nuclear recoil energies using gram-scale cryogenic calorimeters…
Characterization of the Low Energy Excess using a NUCLEUS detector
H. Abele, G. Angloher, B. Arnold +62
The NUCLEUS experiment aims to detect coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering of reactor antineutrinos using low-threshold, gram-scale cryogenic calorimeters. Similar to other…
ImpCresst -- A versatile simulation tool focusing on solid-state detectors at keV energies
G. Angloher, S. Banik, A. Bento +57
We present ImpCresst, a Geant4-based Monte Carlo tool to simulate backgrounds from natural and cosmogenic radionuclides, and calibration signals in solid-state detectors and their…
Observation of two nuclear recoil peaks induced by neutron capture on Al2O3
H. Abele, P. Ajello, B. Arnold +43
We report the observation of two nuclear recoil peaks induced by neutron capture on aluminum in a cryogenic AlO detector developed by the NUCLEUS collaboration for the dete…
