Design Blueprint: Housing and Shielding Design for a Superconducting Quantum Interference Sensor Array: Shielding Requirement, Thermal Load and Johnson Noise Budget
Design blueprint derived from the source paper (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.24147864): This paper presents a computed design for a SQUID array housing intended for SQUID sensor systems, with its performance, resource budgets and margins derived from stated assumptions rather than asserted. The headline results are: shielding factor required to bring ambient fluctuation to the sensor noise target of 4e+05 dimensionless; achieved shielding factor of the derated layered enclosure with Status: DESIGN BLUEPRINT — SIMULATED, NOT MEASURED — NOT BUILT. All numbers are simulated values from the source paper's computation, deposited with this blueprint as compute.py and results.json. AI-use disclosure: Dave, an AI research system, assisted with the computation and drafting under the author's direction; author of record William Alexander Aldred.
