Development of mm(2)-size high energy resolution X-ray detectors using W-SPT
AIP CONF PROC 605 (2002) 227-230
Abstract:
The low transition temperature of tungsten should allow fabrication of X-ray detectors combining high-energy resolution and enlarged absorber area (similar to1 mm(2)). We present first results obtained for lead and gold absorbers read out by tungsten superconducting phase transition thermometers (W-SPT) using a variety of detector geometries.The 66-channel SQUID readout system for CRESST II
AIP CONF PROC 605 (2002) 333-336
Abstract:
The upgrade of the CRESST experiment to a 10 kg target of phonon/light detectors necessitates the installation of 66 readout channels in the CRESST cryostat. We report on the status of this upgrade and discuss the issues related to the installation of the correspondingly high number of SQUIDs and wires in an ultra-low temperature environment.The CRESST Dark Matter Search Status and Future
