Optimising the multiplex factor of the frequency domain multiplexed readout of the TES-based microcalorimeter imaging array for the X-IFU instrument on the Athena Xray observatory
J. van der Kuur, L. G. Gottardi, H. Akamatsu +5
Athena is a space-based X-ray observatory intended for exploration of the hot and energetic universe. One of the science instruments on Athena will be the X-ray Integrated Field Un…
Development of frequency domain multiplexing for the X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) on the Athena
Hiroki Akamatsu, Luciano Gottardi, Jan van der Kuur +11
We are developing the frequency domain multiplexing (FDM) read-out of transition-edge sensor (TES) microcalorimeters for the X-ray Integral Field Unit (X-IFU) instrument on board o…
Microcalorimeter pulse analysis by means of principle component decomposition
C. P. de Vries, R. M. Schouten, J. van der Kuur +2
The X-ray integral field unit for the Athena mission consists of a microcalorimeter transition edge sensor pixel array. Incoming photons generate pulses which are analyzed in terms…
Multiplexed readout demonstration of a TES-based detector array in a resistance locked loop
Jan van der Kuur, Luciano Gottardi, Mikko Kiviranta +5
TES-based bolometer and microcalorimeter arrays with thousands of pixels are under development for several space-based and ground-based applications. A linear detector response and…
