Kavli Affiliate: Paul Brink | Summary:Two photo-neutron sources, $^88$Y$^9$Be and $^124$Sb$^9$Be, have been used to investigate the ionization yield of nuclear recoils in the CDMSlite germanium detectors by the SuperCDMS collaboration. This work evaluates the yield for nuclear recoil energies between 1 keV and 7 keV at a temperature of $sim$ 50 mK. We use […]
