Modeling phase-separated transition-edge sensors in SuperCDMS detectors
A. J. Anderson, S. W. Leman, T. Doughty +4
The SuperCDMS experiment implements transition-edge sensors to measure athermal phonons produced by nuclear recoils in Ge crystals. We discuss a numerical simulation of these TES d…
Simulations of Noise in Phase-Separated Transition-Edge Sensors for SuperCDMS
A. J. Anderson, S. W. Leman, M. Pyle +5
We briefly review a simple model of superconducting-normal phase-separation in transition-edge sensors in the SuperCDMS experiment. After discussing some design considerations rele…
Monte Carlo Comparisons to a Cryogenic Dark Matter Search Detector with low Transition-Edge-Sensor Transition Temperature
S. W. Leman, K. A. McCarthy, P. L. Brink +13
We present results on phonon quasidiffusion and Transition Edge Sensor (TES) studies in a large, 3 inch diameter, 1 inch thick [100] high purity germanium crystal, cooled to 50 mK…
Validation of Phonon Physics in the CDMS Detector Monte Carlo
K. A. McCarthy, S. W. Leman, A. J. Anderson +19
The SuperCDMS collaboration is a dark matter search effort aimed at detecting the scattering of WIMP dark matter from nuclei in cryogenic germanium targets. The CDMS Detector Monte…
Comparison of CDMS [100] and [111] oriented germanium detectors
S. W. Leman, S. A. Hertel, P. Kim +7
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) utilizes large mass, 3" diameter 1" thick target masses as particle detectors. The target is instrumented with both phonon and ioni…
Time Evolution of Electric Fields in CDMS Detectors
S. W. Leman, D. Brandt, P. L. Brink +19
The Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (CDMS) utilizes large mass, 3" diameter x 1" thick target masses as particle detectors. The target is instrumented with both phonon and ionization…
