Dr. Anthony Villano, Assistant Professor of Physics is funded by Dept of @Energy for directional sensitivity for solid dark matter detectors. CU Denver CLAS SuperCDMS #ElevateResearch #DarkMatter

The SuperCDMS experiment marked a big step forward with one-quarter of its detector components undergoing cool testing – literally! A portion of the detector payload is undergoing testing at 15 milliKelvin in the CUTE (Cryogenic Underground TEst) facility for the coming months.

😮 Can you believe it’s Friday already? Neither can the SuperCDMS fridge! The dilution refrigerator for the SuperCDMS experiment at SNOLAB will cool the silicon and germanium crystals to less than 1 Kelvin to see vibrations from particle interactions. 🧵(1/2)

Congratulations to Alexander Zaytsev from Shmoopy for successfully defending his dissertation. His work has greatly contributed to improving the SuperCDMS R&D detectors' sensitivity to light dark matter. We wish you all the very best for your future!

🧲🤔 For centuries, people have been mystified by magnets and wondered how they worked. 🔗 In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don tells us how: youtu.be/s7ndBIL402Q?fe…

Thank you Fermilab and SNOLAB for the delivery of several of our cryogenic instruments at SNOLAB. They are currently being stored Laurentian University - Université Laurentienne and at SNOLAB, and in-time, will make their way underground to the main experiment area for installation.

Dark matter is abundant in our universe yet remains a mystery to scientists. Here at SNOLAB, many experiments are looking to learn more about dark matter. Hear from scientists at Queen's University, McDonald Institute, and SNOLAB about the search for dark matter here: theglobeandmail.com/business/adv/a…

"There is no theory too proud to be embarrassed by a single definitive observation." Join us on at the Kingston Brew Pub on Thursday and hear Steve Sekula of SNOLAB / Queen's University take the side of Experimentation in this special Great Debate edition of Astro On Tap HQ

Elias Lopez Asamar from UAM Autónoma Madrid Inst. Física Teórica gave a talk at the TeV Particle Astrophysics 2023 Archivio di Stato Napoli Napoli, Italy on the status and prospects of the SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment. His talk can be found at: agenda.infn.it/event/33457/co…

Last month, Jing-Han Chen from Texas A&M University gave an overview of the SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment at the 2023 Texas Section American Physical Society in Angelo State. He described the direct dark matter detection method, detector physics and the experiment setup.

Yan Liu from University of British Columbia TRIUMF recently gave a synopsis of the SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment at the Symposium on Frontiers on Underground Physics, at Chengdu, China.

Osmond Wen from Caltech gave a talk at the CPAD workshop 2023 hosted by SLAC. His talk focused on understanding the low energy excess observed in data from the SuperCDMS gram-scale high voltage detectors.

The SuperCDMS HV tower with 2 Silicon and 4 Germanium detectors is being tested at CUTE SNOLAB for its performance. A major milestone for SuperCDMS.

Another major milestone! The last of the SuperCDMS detector towers have arrived SNOLAB and are in our cleanroom. Thank you SLAC and SNOLAB for the careful delivery. Electrical checks on all their sensors are underway with Vijay Iyer, Madeleine Zurowski and Richard Partridge.

How can a photon have momentum? In this video, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln shows that the question arises from a misuse of equations and also shows that, when you think about it, it’s not surprising at all. ⤵️ youtu.be/V_fKYrrsVT4?fe…

Joseph Mammo from University of South Dakota gave an overview of the SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment NSBP, Inc. 2023 Annual Conference Knoxville Convention Center Knoxville, Tennessee. His talk covered the motivation, science goals, and current status of the experiment.

It was our pleasure to show the SuperCDMS experiment and the CUTE facility to Chris Hadfield and friends in the Young President's Organization during their visit to SNOLAB.

John Orrell from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory gave a talk at the double beta decay and underground science 2023 conference in Hawaii, USA. His talk covered the detector principles, experimental setup and had a special focus on expected backgrounds for the experiment. rcnp.osaka-u.ac.jp/dbd23/Data/Pro…

Season’s greetings from everyone at SNOLAB! The experiments featured on this year’s holiday card are, from left to right: SNO+, DEAP-36000, SuperCDMS, REPAIR, and PICO.

Thank you to The Globe and Mail for featuring their podcast on SNOLAB and the search for dark matter among their highlights of 2023. Listen to Dr. Jodi Cooley update the status of SuperCDMS and the exciting role SNOLAB is playing in dark matter detection. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the…
