Minerals are solid state nuclear track detectors—nuclear recoils in a mineral leave latent
damage to the crystal structure. Depending on the mineral and its temperature, the damage …

Quantum sensing uses properties of quantum mechanics to go beyond what is possible with
traditional measurement techniques. In particle physics, key problems in which quantum …

We present a summary of future prospects for direct detection of dark matter within the
GeV/c2 to TeV/c2 mass range. This is paired with a new definition of the neutrino fog in order …

Dark matter particles populating our galactic halo could be directly detected by measuring
their scattering off target nuclei or electrons in a suitable detector. As this interaction is …

Near-infrared color centers in silicon are emerging candidates for on-chip integrated
quantum emitters, optical-access quantum memories, and sensing. We access ensemble G …

Direct detection for sub-GeV dark matter is developing rapidly, with many novel
experimental ideas and theoretical methods emerging. In this work, we extend the dielectric …

The predictivity of many nonthermal dark matter (DM) models is marred by the gravitational
production background. Nevertheless, if the reheating temperature TR is low, the …

Local crystallographic features negatively affect quantum spin defects by changing the local
electrostatic environment, often resulting in degraded or varied qubit optical and coherence …

Local characterization of the properties and performances of miniaturized magnetic devices
is a prerequisite for advancing present on-chip spintronic technologies. Utilizing nitrogen …

Ion implantation is a key capability for the semiconductor industry. As devices shrink, novel
materials enter the manufacturing line, and quantum technologies transition to being more …
