Channeling in direct dark matter detection I: channeling fraction in NaI (Tl) crystals
The channeling of the ion recoiling after a collision with a WIMP changes the
ionization signal in direct detection experiments, producing a larger signal
than otherwise expected. We give estimates of the fraction of channeled
recoiling ions in NaI (Tl) crystals using analytic models produced since the
1960's and 70's to describe channeling and blocking effects. We find that the
channeling fraction of recoiling lattice nuclei is smaller than that of ions
that are injected into the crystal and that it is strongly temperature
dependent.Comment: 37 pages, 35 figures, Accepted for publication in JCAP on 27 October

Current and power spectrum in a magnetic tunnel device with an atomic size spacer
Current and its noise in a ferromagnetic double tunnel barrier device with a
small spacer particle were studied in the framework of the sequential tunneling
approach. Analytical formulae were derived for electron tunneling through the
spacer particle containing only a single energy level. It was shown that
Coulomb interactions of electrons with a different spin orientation lead to an
increase of the tunnel magnetoresistance. Interactions can also be responsible
for the negative differential resistance. A current noise study showed, which
relaxation processes can enhance or reduce fluctuations leading either to a
super-Poissonian or a sub-Poissonian shot noise.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figure
