Calibration of the EDELWEISS Cryogenic Heat-and-ionisation Germanium Detectors for Dark Matter Search
arXiv:astro-ph/0310657 · doi:10.1016/j.nima.2004.04.218
Abstract
Several aspects of the analysis of the data obtained with the cryogenic heat-and-ionisation Ge detectors used by the EDELWEISS dark matter search experiment are presented. Their calibration, the determination of their energy threshold, fiducial volume and nuclear recoil acceptance are detailed.
