| Demonstration of the CDMS II ZIP technology (2007) | |||||||||||||
Abstract | |||||||||||||
| The most recent CDMS data run (Run 20) was the first run in which multiple ZIP detectors were deployed. Three Si (0.100 kg each) and 3 Ge (0.250 kg each) ZIPs were run with the goals of fully testing such a configuration as well as measuring the g , b , and n rates simultaneously with Ge and Si detectors. Calibration with gand nsources established the bulk electron recoil leakage into the neutron band to be less that 0.2%. Low background data taken during the summer of 2000 produced a simultaneous measurement of the muon coincident neutron background with Si and Ge detectors. | |||||||||||||
