Evaluation of SNOLAB background mitigation procedures through the use of an ICP-MS based dust monitoring methodology
M. L. di Vacri, S. Scorza, A. French +5
Dust particulate fallout on materials in use for rare-event searches is a concerning source of radioactive backgrounds due to the presence of naturally occurring radionuclides K-40…
First measurement of the nuclear-recoil ionization yield in silicon at 100 eV
M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib, D. Alonso +137
We measured the nuclear--recoil ionization yield in silicon with a cryogenic phonon-sensitive gram-scale detector. Neutrons from a mono-energetic beam scatter off of the silicon nu…
Snowmass 2021 Scintillating Bubble Chambers: Liquid-noble Bubble Chambers for Dark Matter and CENS Detection
E. Alfonso-Pita, M. Baker, E. Behnke +42
The Scintillating Bubble Chamber (SBC) Collaboration is developing liquid-noble bubble chambers for the quasi-background-free detection of low-mass (GeV-scale) dark matter and cohe…
The level-1 trigger for the SuperCDMS experiment at SNOLAB
Jonathan S. Wilson, Hanno Meyer zu Theenhausen, Belina von Krosigk +15
The SuperCDMS SNOLAB dark matter search experiment aims to be sensitive to energy depositions down to O(1 eV). This imposes requirements on the resolution, signal efficiency, and n…
A Strategy for Low-Mass Dark Matter Searches with Cryogenic Detectors in the SuperCDMS SNOLAB Facility
SuperCDMS Collaboration, M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib +125
The SuperCDMS Collaboration is currently building SuperCDMS SNOLAB, a dark matter search focused on nucleon-coupled dark matter in the 1-5 GeV/c mass range. Looking to the futu…
Ionization yield measurement in a germanium CDMSlite detector using photo-neutron sources
SuperCDMS Collaboration, M. F. Albakry, I. Alkhatib +126
Two photo-neutron sources, YBe and SbBe, have been used to investigate the ionization yield of nuclear recoils in the CDMSlite germanium detectors by the…
