First results from a multiplexed and massive instrument with sub-electron noise Skipper-CCDs
F. Chierchie, C. R. Chavez, M. Sofo Haro +7
We present a new instrument composed of a large number of sub-electron noise Skipper-CCDs operated with a two stage analog multiplexed readout scheme suitable for scaling to thousa…
Cosmological implications of photon-flux upper limits at ultra-high energies in scenarios of Planckian-interacting massive particles for dark matter
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374
Using the data of the Pierre Auger Observatory, we report on a search for signatures that would be suggestive of super-heavy particles decaying in the Galactic halo. From the lack…
Investigating Hadronic Interactions at Ultra-High Energies with the Pierre Auger Observatory
Isabel Goos, :, P. Abreu +374
The development of an extensive air shower depends not only on the nature of the primary ultra-high-energy cosmic ray but also on the properties of the hadronic interactions. For e…
EXCESS workshop: Descriptions of rising low-energy spectra
P. Adari, A. Aguilar-Arevalo, D. Amidei +303
Many low-threshold experiments observe sharply rising event rates of yet unknown origins below a few hundred eV, and larger than expected from known backgrounds. Due to the signifi…
Limits to gauge coupling in the dark sector set by the non-observation of instanton-induced decay of Super-Heavy Dark Matter in the Pierre Auger Observatory data
The Pierre Auger Collaboration, P. Abreu, M. Aglietta +374
Instantons, which are non-perturbative solutions to Yang-Mills equations, provide a signal for the occurrence of quantum tunneling between distinct classes of vacua. They can give…
The Oscura Experiment
Alexis Aguilar-Arevalo, Fabricio Alcalde Bessia, Nicolas Avalos +41
The Oscura experiment will lead the search for low-mass dark matter particles using a very large array of novel silicon Charge Coupled Devices (CCDs) with a threshold of two electr…
