SuperCDMS detector testing at the Cryogenic Underground TEst (CUTE) facility — •Sukeerthi Dharani for the SuperCDMS collaboration — Universität Hamburg

SuperCDMS SNOLAB is an upcoming direct dark matter search experiment using silicon and germanium detectors operated at cryogenic temperatures. The experiment is planned to start data taking in 2023 at SNOLAB which is located 2 kilometers underground in the Creighton mine in Canada. With a low background from cosmic sources, SNOLAB is ideal for rare event searches. The Cryogenic Underground TEst (CUTE) is a well-shielded test facility operating at SNOLAB with a measured background rate of ~ 7 events/keV/kg/day. It acts as a testbed for the SuperCDMS detectors and facilitates performing early science runs. In this talk, an overview of the CUTE facility's features, ongoing activities, and applications for the SuperCDMS experiment will be presented.
