Description
The Scintillating Bubble Chamber Collaboration (SBC) is developing a liquid-noble detector ideal for GeV-mass WIMP searches and coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CE$\nu$NS) detection. The detector is now being commissioned at Fermilab and consists of a 10-kg bubble chamber using liquid argon with the potential to reach and maintain sub-keV energy thresholds. This detector will combine the event-by-event energy resolution of a liquid noble scintillation detector with the world-leading electron-recoil discrimination capability of the bubble chamber. The physics reach of this detector using CE$\nu$NS will be presented in this poster and includes the sensitivity to the weak mixing angle, neutrino magnetic moment, and a light Z$^\prime$ gauge boson mediator, in addition to other sensitivity to New Physics scenarios like light scalar mediators, sterile neutrino oscillations, unitarity violation, and non-standard interactions.
