Abstract
When present-day bar antennas reach the standard quantum limit, cosmic rays are expected to become a significant source of noise. In this work, we estimate the influences of single hadrons and muons on such detectors and compare them to those expected for a hypothetical CuAl detector, since next generation resonant-mass detectors are being considered to have antennas made with this material.
