Precision measurement of Compton scattering in silicon with a skipper CCD for dark matter detection
D. Norcini, N. Castello-Mor, D. Baxter +41
Experiments aiming to directly detect dark matter through particle recoils can achieve energy thresholds of . In this regime, ionization signals from s…
Measurement of the low-energy quenching factor in germanium using an Y/Be photoneutron source
B. J. Scholz, A. E. Chavarria, J. I. Collar +2
We employ an Y/Be photoneutron source to derive the quenching factor for neutron-induced nuclear recoils in germanium, probing recoil energies from a few hundred eV t…
Search for low-mass WIMPs in a 0.6 kg day exposure of the DAMIC experiment at SNOLAB
A. Aguilar-Arevalo, D. Amidei, X. Bertou +35
We present results of a dark matter search performed with a 0.6 kg day exposure of the DAMIC experiment at the SNOLAB underground laboratory. We measure the energy spectrum of ioni…
DAMIC at SNOLAB
Alvaro Chavarria, Javier Tiffenberg, Alexis Aguilar-Arevalo +19
We introduce the fully-depleted charge-coupled device (CCD) as a particle detector. We demonstrate its low energy threshold operation, capable of detecting ionizing energy depositi…
Solar System objects as cosmic rays detectors
Paolo Privitera, Pavel Motloch
In a recent Letter (Rimmer et al. 2014), Jupiter is presented as an efficient detector for Ultra-High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECRs), through measurement by an Earth-orbiting satellit…
