Light dark matter investigation with CRESST [PDF]

Proceedings of Neutrino Oscillation Workshop — PoS(NOW2018), 2019
Cryogenic detectors are excellent devices for rare event searches. Thanks to their low energy thresholds, these detectors are at the cutting edge for the investigations of light dark matter (DM). The CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) experiment explores with high sensitivity the parameter space of low mass DM ...

The CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) for high-energy astroparticle physics on the International Space Station

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The CALorimetric Electron Telescope (CALET) is a space experiment, currently under development by Japan in collaboration with Italy and the United States, which will measure the flux of cosmic-ray electrons (and positrons) up to 20 TeV energy, of gamma ...

“Teaching To the Test” Family of Fallacies

Revista Iberoamericana de Evaluación Educativa, 2017
This article explains the various meanings and ambiguities of the phrase “teaching to the test” (TttT), describes its history and use as a pejorative, and outlines the policy implications of the popular, but fallacious, belief that “high stakes” testing ...

CRESST cryogenic dark matter search

New Astronomy Reviews, 2005
Abstract The CRESST Phase II experiment at Gran Sasso is using 300 g scintillating CaWO 4 crystals as absorbers for direct WIMP (weakly interactive massive particles) detection. The phonon signal in the CaWO 4 crystal is registered in coincidence with the light signal, which is measured with a separate cryogenic light detector. The absorber crystal

Multichannel SQUID readout for CRESST II

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2004
We have developed a 66-channel SQUID system to read out the detectors for the second phase of the CRESST dark matter search using SQUID sensors, electronics and cryocables supplied by different manufacturers. The system has been extensively tested at Oxford to characterise the sensitivity, bandwidth, slew rate, noise, thermal drift, and crosstalk.

Cresst-II: dark matter search with scintillating absorbers

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2004
In the CRESST-II experiment, scintillating CaWO4 crystals are used as absorbers for direct WIMP (weakly interacting massive particles) detection. Nuclear recoils can be discriminated against electron recoils by measuring phonons and scintillation light simultaneously.
