Enhanced Athermal Phonon Responsivity in a Kinetic Inductance Detector with Integrated Phonon Collectors
Leonardo Pesce, Alessio Ludovico De Santis, Martino Calvo +10
Cryogenic phonon detectors are adopted in light dark matter searches and coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering experiments as they can achieve low energy thresholds. The pho…

Evaluating radiation impact on transmon qubits in above and underground facilities
Francesco De Dominicis, Tanay Roy, Ambra Mariani +20
Superconducting qubits can be sensitive to abrupt energy deposits caused by cosmic rays and ambient radioactivity. While previous studies have explored correlated effects in time a…
