KATRIN Sensitivity to keV Sterile Neutrinos with the TRISTAN Detector Upgrade
H. Acharya, M. Aker, D. Batzler +127
Sterile neutrinos in the keV mass range are a well-motivated extension of the Standard Model and viable dark matter candidates. Their existence can be probed in laboratory experime…
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…
Particle background characterization and prediction for the NUCLEUS reactor CENS experiment
H. Abele, G. Anglogher, B. Arnold +57
NUCLEUS is a cryogenic detection experiment which aims to measure Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CENS) and to search for new physics at the Chooz nuclear power p…
Commissioning of the NUCLEUS Experiment at the Technical University of Munich
H. Abele, G. Angloher, B. Arnold +57
The NUCLEUS experiment aims to detect coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering of reactor antineutrinos on CaWO targets in the fully coherent regime, using gram-scale cryog…
Sub-keV Electron Recoil Calibration for Macroscopic Cryogenic Calorimeters using a Novel X-ray Fluorescence Source
H. Abele, G. Angloher, B. Arnold +61
Percent-level calibration of cryogenic macro-calorimeters with energy thresholds below 100~eV are crucial for light Dark Matter (DM) searches and reactor neutrino studies based on…
The CRAB facility at the TU Wien TRIGA reactor: status and related physics program
H. Abele, P. Ajello, A. Armatol +51
The CRAB (Calibrated nuclear Recoils for Accurate Bolometry) project aims to precisely characterize the response of cryogenic detectors to sub-keV nuclear recoils of direct interes…
