The TES-based Cryogenic AntiCoincidence Detector (CryoAC) of ATHENA X-IFU: a large area silicon microcalorimeter for background particles detection
M. D'Andrea, C. Macculi, S. Lotti +14
We are developing the Cryogenic AntiCoincidence detector (CryoAC) of the ATHENA X-IFU spectrometer. It is a TES-based particle detector aimed to reduce the background of the instru…
Power deposition studies for standard and crystal-assisted heavy ion collimation inthe CERN Large Hadron Collider
J. B. Potoine, R. Bruce, R. Cai +12
The LHC heavy-ion program with Pb beams will benefit from a significant increase of the beam intensity when entering its High-Luminosity era in Run~3 (2023). The st…
The Athena X-ray Integral Field Unit: a consolidated design for the system requirement review of the preliminary definition phase
Didier Barret, Vincent Albouys, Jan-Willem den Herder +296
The Athena X-ray Integral Unit (X-IFU) is the high resolution X-ray spectrometer, studied since 2015 for flying in the mid-30s on the Athena space X-ray Observatory, a versatile ob…
ATHENA X-IFU Demonstration Model: First joint operation of the main TES Array and its Cryogenic AntiCoincidence Detector (CryoAC)
M. D'Andrea, K. Ravensberg, A. Argan +28
The X-IFU is the cryogenic spectrometer onboard the future ATHENA X-ray observatory. It is based on a large array of TES microcalorimeters, which works in combination with a Cryoge…
Demonstration of MHz frequency domain multiplexing readout of 37 transition edge sensors for high-resolution x-ray imaging spectrometers
H. Akamatsu, D. Vaccaro, L. Gottardi +22
We report on the development and demonstration of a MHz frequency domain multiplexing (FDM) technology to read out arrays of cryogenic transition edge sensor (TES) X-ray microcalor…
High Aspect Ratio Transition Edge Sensors for X-ray Spectrometry
M. de Wit, L. Gottardi, E. Taralli +11
We are developing large TES arrays in combination with FDM readout for the next generation of X-ray space observatories. For operation under AC-bias, the TESs have to be carefully…
