Abstract We present the first continuous operation in a surface lab of BULLKID, a detector for searches of light Dark Matter and precision measurements of the coherent and elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering. The detector consists of an array of 60 cubic silicon particle absorbers of 0.34 g each, sensed by cryogenic kinetic inductance detectors. The data presented focusses on one of the central elements of the array and on its surrounding elements used as veto. The energy spectrum resulting from an exposure of 39 h to ambient backgrounds, obtained without radiation shields, is flat at the level of $$(2.0\pm 0.1\,\mathrm{stat.}\pm 0.2\,\mathrm{syst.})\times 10^6$$ ( 2.0 ± 0.1 stat . ± 0.2 syst . ) × 10 6 counts/keV kg days down to the energy threshold of $$160\pm 13$$ 160 ± 13 eV. The data analysis demonstrates the unique capability of rejecting backgrounds generated from interactions in other sites of the array, stemming from the segmented and monolithic structure of the detector. |
