Muon Detector for Underground Tomography
Yan Benhammou, Erez Etzion, Gilad Mizrachi +3
We utilise muons from cosmic ray to explore hidden underground archaeological structures. Presented here is the design, simulation studies and first laboratory results of a compact…
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…
Snowmass2021 Cosmic Frontier: The landscape of low-threshold dark matter direct detection in the next decade
Rouven Essig, Graham K. Giovanetti, Noah Kurinsky +90
The search for particle-like dark matter with meV-to-GeV masses has developed rapidly in the past few years. We summarize the science case for these searches, the recent progress,…
Recent Progress and Next Steps for the MATHUSLA LLP Detector
Cristiano Alpigiani, Juan Carlos Arteaga-Velázquez, Austin Ball +93
We report on recent progress and next steps in the design of the proposed MATHUSLA Long Lived Particle (LLP) detector for the HL-LHC as part of the Snowmass 2021 process. Our under…
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…
Constraints on the electron-hole pair creation energy and Fano factor below 150 eV from Compton scattering in a Skipper-CCD
A. M. Botti, S. Uemura, G. Fernandez Moroni +9
Fully-depleted thick silicon Skipper-charge-coupled devices (Skipper-CCDs) are an important technology to probe neutrino and light-dark-matter interactions due to their sub-electro…
