Talk in parallel session

The Boulby Underground Screening (BUGS) facility has been in operation since 2014. Initially comprising 2 low background germanium detectors, this has expanded to include now 6 low and ultra-low background germanium detectors, two XIA Ultralo-1800 detectors and will soon include a low background radon emanation assay facility. With these facilities underground and with plans for cleanliness...

Talk in parallel session

Operational since 2019, the Cryogenic Underground TEst (CUTE) facility is located 2 km underground in the SNOLAB laboratory near Sudbury Ontario, Canada. Although designed with the focus of performance testing cryogenic (~ 10 mK) detectors for the Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search (SuperCDMS), CUTE also makes available a well shielded and vibrationally isolated underground platform for other...
