A Transition-edge Sensor-based X-ray Spectrometer for the Study of Highly Charged Ions at the National Institute of Standards and Technology Electron Beam Ion Trap
P. Szypryt, G. C. O'Neil, E. Takacs +15
We report on the design, commissioning, and initial measurements of a Transition-edge Sensor (TES) x-ray spectrometer for the Electron Beam Ion Trap (EBIT) at the National Institut…
Superconducting micro-resonator arrays with ideal frequency spacing and extremely low frequency collision rate
X. Liu, W. Guo, Y. Wang +10
We present a wafer trimming technique for producing superconducting micro-resonator arrays with highly uniform frequency spacing. With the light-emitting diode (LED) mapper techniq…
A Reassessment of Absolute Energies of the X-ray L Lines of Lanthanide Metals
J. W. Fowler, B. K. Alpert, D. A. Bennett +12
We introduce a new technique for determining x-ray fluorescence line energies and widths, and we present measurements made with this technique of 22 x-ray L lines from lanthanide-s…
Measuring the electron neutrino mass with improved sensitivity: the HOLMES experiment
A. Giachero, B. Alpert, D. Becker +39
HOLMES is a new experiment aiming at directly measuring the neutrino mass with a sensitivity below 2 eV. HOLMES will perform a calorimetric measurement of the energy released in th…
First application of superconducting transition-edge-sensor microcalorimeters to hadronic-atom x-ray spectroscopy
S. Okada, D. A. Bennett, C. Curceanu +35
High-resolution pionic-atom x-ray spectroscopy was performed with an x-ray spectrometer based on a 240-pixel array of superconducting transition-edge-sensor (TES) microcalorimeters…
Absolute Energy Calibration of X-ray TESs with 0.04 eV Uncertainty at 6.4 keV in a Hadron-Beam Environment
H. Tatsuno, W. B. Doriese, D. A. Bennett +31
A performance evaluation of superconducting transition-edge sensors (TESs) in the environment of a pion beam line at a particle accelerator is presented. Averaged across the 209 fu…
