Dark matter searches with a 13 meV threshold superconducting sensor array

Christopher Albert, Lanqing Yuan, Jacob Harris +13

Many well-motivated dark matter models predict meV-scale energy deposits in interactions with terrestrial experiments, but this regime is challenging to probe due to a lack of matu…

In Situ Interferometric Spatial Mapping Of A Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector Array

Chris Albert, Ritoban Basu Thakur, Farzad Faramarzi +7

We present a method of spatially mapping microwave kinetic inductance detector (MKID) arrays, in a dark setup. MKIDs are superconducting natively multiplexed resonators which enabl…
