Low-temperature (~mK) cryogenic technologies are used to search for some of the most exciting and rare processes in physics. With a long and illustrious history, cryogenic detectors push the boundaries of the current technological limits and are found in some of the most extreme locations on Earth. During this talk I will present two cryogenic experiments (SuperCDMS and COSINUS) and discuss how they are helping to solve some of the most compelling mysteries of modern particle physics. Additionally, I will explore how these detectors can be sensitive to neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae and the physics that could be extracted in the case of such an event.

The McDonald Institute seminar will be held in Stirling 501. A zoom link is also available and was shared via email from Melissa Diamond or Aaron Vincent. Please reach out to them to get access.
