Exploring Low Mass Dark Matter in SuperCDMS SNOLAB
ORAL
Abstract
The SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment will probe a range of low mass dark matter models with a suite of silicon and germanium detectors operated in both high-voltage and nuclear recoil discrimination mode. Data taken with the SuperCDMS Soudan detectors operated in HV-mode (CDMSlite) and test data with the new HVeV detectors is already carving out new parameter space. These results inform our expected sensitivity for the SuperCDMS SNOLAB experiment, which will begin data-taking in 2020. Plans for nuclear recoil calibration and our 4-tower initial payload strategy will be presented, as well as our expected physics reach for the first science run.
