Spectroscopic measurements and models of energy deposition in the substrate of quantum circuits by natural ionizing radiation
Joseph W. Fowler, Paul Szypryt, Raymond Bunker +16
Naturally occurring background radiation is a source of correlated decoherence events in superconducting qubits that will challenge error-correction schemes. To characterize the ra…
Detecting Light Dark Matter with Kinetic Inductance Detectors
Jiansong Gao, Yonit Hochberg, Benjamin V. Lehmann +4
Superconducting detectors are a promising technology for probing dark matter at extremely low masses, where dark matter interactions are currently unconstrained. Realizing the pote…
Characterization of NbTiN films with thicknesses below 20 nm for low power kinetic inductance amplifiers
A. Giachero, M. R. Vissers, J. D. Wheeler +6
A quantum-limited amplification chain is a fundamental advantage for any application that may benefit from the detection of very faint signals. Reading out arrays of superconductin…
The BLAST Observatory: A Sensitivity Study for Far-IR Balloon-borne Polarimeters
The BLAST Observatory Collaboration, Gabriele Coppi, Simon Dicker +21
Sensitive wide-field observations of polarized thermal emission from interstellar dust grains will allow astronomers to address key outstanding questions about the life cycle of ma…
