Results from a Search for Light-Mass Dark Matter with a P-type Point Contact Germanium Detector

Journal Article Aalseth, Craig E. ; Barbeau, Phil ; Bowden, N. S. ; ... - Physical Review Letters, 106(13):Article No. 131301

We report on several features present in the energy spectrum from an ultra low-noise geranium detector operated at 2,100 m.w.e. By implementing a new technique able to reject surface events, a number of cosmogenic peaks can be observed for the first time. We discuss several possible causes for an irreducible excess of bulk-like events below 3 keVee, including a dark matter candidate common to the DAMA/LIBRA annual modulation effect, the hint of a signal in CDMS, and phenomenological predictions. Improved constraints are placed on a cosmological origin for the DAMA/LIBRA effect.

Search for Dark Matter Produced in Association with a Dark Higgs Boson Decaying into $W^{\pm} W^{\mp}$ or $Z Z$ in Fully Hadronic Final States from $\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV$ $p p$ Collisions Recorded with the ATLAS Detector

Journal Article Aad, G. ; Abbott, B. ; Abbott, D. C. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Several extensions of the Standard Model predict the production of dark matter particles at the LHC. An uncharted signature of dark matter particles produced in association with VV = W^±W^∓ or ZZ pairs from a decay of a dark Higgs boson s is searched for using 139 fb^–1 of pp collisions recorded by the ATLAS detector at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV.

CoGeNT: A Search for Low-Mass Dark Matter using p-type Point Contact Germanium Detectors

Journal Article Aalseth, Craig E. ; Barbeau, P. S. ; Colaresi, J. ; ... - Physical Review. D, Particles and Fields, 88(1):Article No. 012002

CoGeNT employs p-type point-contact (PPC) germanium detectors to search for Weakly In- teracting Massive Particles (WIMPs). By virtue of its low energy threshold and ability to reject surface backgrounds, this type of device allows an emphasis on low-mass dark matter candidates (m* * 10 GeV/c2). We report on the characteristics of the PPC detector presently taking data at the Soudan Underground Laboratory, elaborating on aspects of shielding, data acquisition, instru- mental stability, data analysis, and background estimation. A detailed background model is used to investigate the low energy excess of events previously reported, and to assess the possibility of temporalmore »« less

Development of planar P-type point contact germanium detectors for low-mass dark matter searches

Journal Article Wei, W. -Z. ; Mei, H. ; Kooi, K. ; ... - European Physical Journal. C, Particles and Fields

The detection of low-energy deposition in the range of sub-eV through ionization using germanium (Ge) with a bandgap of ~ 0.7 eV requires internal amplification of the charge signal. This can be achieved through high electric field that accelerates charge carriers, which can then generate more charge carriers. The minimum electric field required to generate internal charge amplification is derived for different temperatures. We report the development of a planar point contact Ge detector in terms of its fabrication and the measurements of its leakage current and capacitance as a function of applied bias voltage. With the determination of themore »« less

Search for Dark Matter Produced in Association with a Higgs Boson Decaying to $b \bar{b}$ Using $36 {fb}^{- 1}$ of $p p$ Collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13 TeV$ with the ATLAS Detector

Journal Article Aaboud, M. ; Aad, G. ; Abbott, B. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Several extensions of the standard model predict associated production of dark-matter particles with a Higgs boson. Such processes are searched for in final states with missing transverse momentum and a Higgs boson decaying to a b¯b pair with the ATLAS detector using 36.1 fb^–1 of pp collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV at the LHC. As a result, the observed data are in agreement with the standard model predictions and limits are placed on the associated production of dark-matter particles and a Higgs boson.
