요약 | Dark matter is one of the remaining great mysteries of modern physics. Cosmological and astrophysical evidence hints strongly at a new particle, or set of particles, unknown to the Standard Model, comprising some 80% of all of the matter in the |
요약 | SuperCDMS is one of the world-leading direct-detection experiments attempting to directly measure interactions between dark and regular matter. SuperCDMS uses solid state crystalline detectors in a nearly-zero background environment to attempt t |
요약 | The detectors themselves, however, are quite complex |
요약 | The SuperCDMS detectors are well-understood in ideal cases. However, an accurate understanding of the detector response to outlier events or under non-ideal conditions is important for a low-statistics experiment. |
요약 | This work describes the design and implementation of a low temperature condensed matter physics simulation library built on top of the popular Geant4 particle tracking framework. The library, named "Geant4 Condensed Matter Physics" or G4CMP, int |
요약 | In addition to the physics library, which is intended for general use, this work also describes a full Monte Carlo simulation package for the SuperCDMS iZIP detectors which utilizes G4CMP at its core and also fully simulates the detector readout |
요약 | The document will begin with the canonical motivations for the cold dark matter hypothesis, followed by a description of the SuperCDMS experiment. It will then describe the microscopic physics inside of the SuperCDMS detectors, as well as detail |
