5g Ge 1cpd A new project from KIMS Threshold: 100eV QF: 0.25 Ultra-low Energy threshold HPGe detector experiment
THUNDER Project THUNDER: TsingHua UNderground Darkmatter Experimental Research Collaboration: Tsinghua University Seoul national University IoP of Academia Sinica
Experimental Set-up Current weapon: 5g prototype Ge detector 16.94kg CsI(Tl) veto detector Location: Y2L @Korea Current lowest threshold: 500eV (CRESST)
Threshold Background level Energy region: threshold(300eV) ~ 100keV Threshold: 300eV Average background level ~ 40 cpd Blue: after veto, Red: before veto Average veto efficiency ~ 60%
New Plan for Lab Underground Lab. Space New Lab. space 40 m x 20 m = 800 m2 Current Lab. ~ 100m2
New Plan: Detector Upgrade 20g detector (5g*4channels) next spring! 1000g(Multi-channel Array) Mechanical design of large-N array
