Description
Cryogenic (O(mK)) technologies are used for a variety of applications in astroparticle, nuclear, and quantum physics. Through my research I seek to optimize these technologies to measure very faint signals. This includes experiments searching for dark matter (SuperCDMS and COSINUS) and highly forbidden nuclear decays (RAMPS/LUCE). These experiments all utilize similar cryogenic systems but have a wide diversity in goals. This talk will provide an overview of my research portfolio introducing each of the above experiments and some of the excellent science that takes place at SNOLAB.
