A new paper by the SuperCDMS collaboration places improved constraints on dark matter with a small array of cryogenic detectors (named HVeV). These detectors were operated in the NEXUS underground test stand, which is situated 100 meters underground in the Fermilab NuMI hall. The data revealed a background that was time-correlated between detectors (shown… More »
In an article submitted to Physical Review D, CPC members Noah Kurinsky and Gordan Krnjaic collaborate with Dan Baxter (KICP) and Yoni Kahn (UIUC) to present a novel interpretation of excess events observed at various low-threshold dark matter searches. They found that the anomalous results across various detectors operating in dramatically different experimental conditions could… More »
