Symposia Day (PPD - PPD) - Discovering New Paths to Discovery: New Technologies and Methods to Uncover BSM Physics | Découvrir de nouvelles voies vers la découverte : Nouvelles technologies et méthodes pour découvrir la physique au-delà du modèle standard

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

Uncovering the nature of dark matter is one of the most important goals of particle physics. Light bosonic particles, such as the dark photon, are well-motivated candidates: they are generally long lived, weakly-interacting, and naturally produced in the early universe. LAMPOST (Light A' Multilayer Periodic Optical SNSPD Target) experiment searches for dark photon dark matter in the eV mass...

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

SENSEI (Sub-Electron Noise Skipper Experimental Instrument) is a direct detection dark matter experiment with detectors operating at Fermilab and at the SNOLAB underground facility. The experiment consists of silicon Skipper-CCD sensors that make multiple non-destructive measurements of the charge contained in each pixel, reducing the readout noise to a level that allows for resolution of...

Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

In the presence of radiation from bright astrophysical sources at radio frequencies, axion dark matter can undergo stimulated decay to two nearly back-to-back photons, meaning that bright sources could have counterimages in other parts of the sky. The counterimages will be spectrally distinct from backgrounds, taking the form of a narrow radio line centered at half the axion mass with a...

Oral not-in-competition (Graduate Student) / Orale non-compétitive (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

The Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (SuperCDMS) is a direct detection experiment, optimized for low-mass dark matter searches. Comprised of silicon and germanium crystal bolometers, the experiment utilizes transition-edge sensor (TES) technology to measure small heat signals that result from particle interactions with the bulk crystal. While the experiment is small compared to ton-scale...
