SUMMARY:New signals and backgrounds in direct detection experiments\, 
 Network in Neutrinos\, Nuclear Astrophysics\, and Symmetries (N3AS) Se
 minar\, Mukul Sholapurkar \, UCSD
DESCRIPTION:Direct detection experiments have traditionally looked for
  nuclear recoils. In the last few years\, experiments have also starte
 d looking for electron recoils\, reaching thresholds of ~ eV. As exper
 iments achieve these low thresholds\, they also encounter new and prev
 iously unexplored backgrounds. In this seminar\, I will discuss about 
 new low energy backgrounds correlated with previously considered high 
 energy backgrounds like cosmic rays and radiogenic photons in current 
 as well as future low threshold detectors. In the end\, I will also br
 iefly comment about using direct detection experiments as neutrino det
 ectors\, and the possibilities of probing new neutrino physics with th
 em.  https://berkeley.zoom.us/j/91230714547  Meeting ID: 912 3071 4547
