Nuclear-recoil energy scale in CDMS II silicon dark-matter detectors
R. Agnese, A. J. Anderson, T. Aramaki +106
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS II) experiment aims to detect dark matter particles that elastically scatter from nuclei in semiconductor detectors. The resulting nuclear-re…
Projected Sensitivity of the SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment
R. Agnese, A. J. Anderson, T. Aramaki +93
SuperCDMS SNOLAB will be a next-generation experiment aimed at directly detecting low-mass (< 10 GeV/c) particles that may constitute dark matter by using cryogenic detectors o…
Measurement Of Quasiparticle Transport In Aluminum Films Using Tungsten Transition-Edge Sensors
J. J. Yen, B. Shank, B. A. Young +8
We report new experimental studies to understand the physics of phonon sensors which utilize quasiparticle diffusion in thin aluminum films into tungsten transition-edge-sensors (T…
Nonlinear Optimal Filter Technique For Analyzing Energy Depositions In TES Sensors Driven Into Saturation
B. Shank, J. J. Yen, B. Cabrera +7
We present a detailed thermal and electrical model of superconducting transition edge sensors (TESs) connected to quasiparticle (qp) traps, such as the W TESs connected to Al qp tr…
Semiconductor phonon and charge transport Monte Carlo simulation using Geant4
D. Brandt, R. Agnese, P. Redl +9
A phonon and charge transport simulation based on the Geant4 Monte Carlo toolkit is presented. The transport code is capable of propagating acoustic phonons, electrons and holes in…
Letter of Intent: The Precision IceCube Next Generation Upgrade (PINGU)
PINGU Collaboration
The Precision IceCube Next Generation Upgrade (PINGU) is a proposed low-energy in-fill array of the IceCube Neutrino Observatory. Leveraging technology proven with IceCube, PINGU w…
