Improving Axion detectors

Quantum non-demolition single microwave photon detectors based on superconducting qubits

Aaron Chou, Daniel Bowring (FNAL), David Schuster, Akash Dixit, Ankur Agrawal (UChicago) Photon amplitude is non-destructively mapped onto the qubit’s frequency. Reduce noise levels in axion detectors by evading the quantum back-action.

SuperCDMS SNOLAB

Will provide superb sensitivity to low mass WIMPs with Ge and Si operated in both HV and iZIP modes

  • One of three experiments in

U.S. “suite” of Generation 2 dark matter experiments

  • Expected to begin operation in

early 2020 and run for ~5 years

  • Facility designed for future

upgrade to reach neutrino floor

SuperCDMS at Fermilab

SNOLAB Ladder Lab “future home”

Detector control and readout card Calibration system prototype at Lab G

SuperCDMS cleanroom in Lab G

  • FNAL continuing 20 years of involvement with SuperCDMS with

major roles in G2 project:

  • Cryogenic design
  • Warm electronics design and fabrication
  • Calibration system design
  • Infrastructure and Integration for whole experiment
  • Lab-G is home-base for SuperCDMS efforts at FNAL; will

commission cryogenic and calibration systems here.

  • Northwestern cryogenic testing facility (NEXUS) to be installed in

MINOS near detector hall

  • Allows low background testing of “beyond G2” detectors
  • Installation to take place this summer
  • Developed in collaboration with FNAL SuperCDMS group and

with support from FNAL detector R&D funds
