The aim of the SELENDIS project within the EDELWEISS collaboration is to observe single $e^- h^+$ pairs in lightweight (3.3 g) cryogenic germanium bolometers with charge and phonon readout at biases up to $\sim 100$ V. These devices are…
We have measured the heat capacities of $\delta-$Pu$_{0.95}$Al$_{0.05}$ and $\alpha-$Pu over the temperature range 2-303 K. The availability of data below 10 K plus an estimate of the phonon contribution to the heat capacity based on recent…
We evaluate discovery prospects for photophobic axion-like particles (ALPs) in the $WWjj$ final state at the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC; $\sqrt{s}=14$ TeV, $L=3$ ab$^{-1}$). In the photophobic limit ($g_{a\gamma\gamma}=0$), ALPs couple to…
