Studying single-electron traps in newly fabricated Skipper-CCDs for the Oscura experiment using the pocket-pumping technique

S. E. Perez, B. A. Cervantes-Vergara, J. Estrada +3

Understanding and characterizing very low-energy (eV) background sources is a must in rare-event searches. Oscura, an experiment aiming to probe electron recoils from sub-GeV…

Confirmation of the spectral excess in DAMIC at SNOLAB with skipper CCDs

A. Aguilar-Arevalo, I. Arnquist, N. Avalos +69

We present results from a 3.25 kg-day target exposure of two silicon charge-coupled devices (CCDs), each with 24 megapixels and skipper readout, deployed in the DAMIC setup at SNOL…

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…

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…

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…
