A Data-Driven Method for Measuring Position Resolution in the DEAP-3600 DarkMatter Detector
DownloadFall 2019
DEAP-3600 is a single-phase liquid Argon dark matter detector operated at SNOLAB in Ontario, Canada, searching for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). It is well-established that astronomical and cosmological observations suggest the existence of some form of unseen matter in the...

Optimization of Processing Parameters and Development of a Radon Trapping System for the NEWS-G Dark Matter Detector
DownloadFall 2021
The direct detection for a dark matter particle is reaching increasingly lower sensitivities and the New Experiments With Spheres-Gas (NEWS-G) collaboration is one of the experiments at the forefront of this. Currently being installed at SNOLAB two kilometres underground, the Spherical...

Fall 2021
String theory requires the existence of extra spatial dimensions. They must be compactified since they have not yet been detected. If the size of these extra dimensions is large then it is possible that the string scale Ms could be on the order of TeV. In the Dp-brane model of string theory...

Searching for Non-Standard Model Highly Ionizing Processes and Long-Lived Neutral Particles With the MoEDAL-MAPP Detector
DownloadFall 2023
The Monopole & Exotics Detector at the Large Hadron Collider (MoEDAL) is designed to search for highly ionizing particle avatars of physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. Phase 1 of the MoEDAL Apparatus for Penetrating Particles (MAPP-1) upgrade is currently being installed to...
