Single-electron detection in a high-purity Ge device
Antoine Armatol, Corinne Augier, Laurent Bergé +69
High-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors are among the most powerful instruments for gamma ray spectroscopy, combining exceptional energy resolution with large active volumes. Althou…
Characterization of Aluminum Microwave SQUID Multiplexers for CENS Detection
James Amidei, Antoine Armatol, Corinne Augier +92
We present the design, fabrication, and characterization of an aluminum-based six-channel microwave SQUID multiplexer (MUX) prototype for transition-edge sensor (TES) readout in…
Flow-dependent tagging of Pb decays in the LZ dark matter detector
J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +205
The LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) experiment is searching for dark matter interactions in a liquid xenon time projection chamber (LXe-TPC). This article demonstrates how control of the flow stat…
Low Energy Backgrounds and Excess Noise in a Two-Channel Low-Threshold Calorimeter
Robin Anthony-Petersen, Clarence L. Chang, Yen-Yung Chang +29
We describe observations of low energy excess (LEE) events, background events observed in all light dark matter direct detection calorimeters, and noise in a Transition Edge Sensor…
The Data Acquisition System of the LZ Dark Matter Detector: FADR
J. Aalbers, D. S. Akerib, A. K. Al Musalhi +213
The Data Acquisition System (DAQ) for the LUX-ZEPLIN (LZ) dark matter detector is described. The signals from 745 PMTs, distributed across three subsystems, are sampled with 100-MH…
First Demonstration of the HeRALD Superfluid Helium Detector Concept
R. Anthony-Petersen, A. Biekert, C. L. Chang +33
The SPICE/HeRALD collaboration is performing R&D to enable studies of sub-GeV dark matter models using a variety of target materials. Here we report our recent progress on instrume…
