Design of a mission to measure the shape and substructure of the 511 keV gamma-ray line from the center of the Milky Way
Kun Hu, Matthew Fritts, Daniel Becker +23
The 511 keV electron-positron annihilation feature near the galactic center has been detected for more than half a century, yet its origin remains a mystery. In this paper, we desc…
Characterization of Silicon-Membrane TES Microcalorimeters for Large-Format X-ray Spectrometers with Integrated Microwave SQUID Readout
Avirup Roy, Robinjeet Singh, Joel C. Weber +17
We present the electro-thermal characterization of transition-edge sensor (TES) detectors suspended on Si membranes fabricated using a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafer. The use of…
Phenomenological Modeling of the Ho Calorimetric Electron Capture Spectrum from the HOLMES Experiment
F. Ahrens, B. K. Alpert, D. T. Becker +46
We present a comprehensive phenomenological analysis of the calorimetric electron capture (EC) decay spectrum of Ho as measured by the HOLMES experiment. Using high-statist…
Most stringent bound on electron neutrino mass obtained with a scalable low temperature microcalorimeter array
B. K. Alpert, M. Balata, D. T. Becker +36
The determination of the absolute neutrino mass scale remains a fundamental open question in particle physics, with profound implications for both the Standard Model and cosmology.…
A high-speed, high-resolution Transition Edge Sensor spectrometer for soft X-rays at the Advanced Photon Source
Orlando Quaranta, Don Jensen, Kelsey Morgan +12
This project explores the design and development of a transition edge sensor (TES) spectrometer for resonant soft X- ray scattering (RSXS) measurements developed in collaboration b…
ASCENT - A balloon-borne hard X-ray imaging spectroscopy telescope using transition edge sensor microcalorimeter detectors
Fabian Kislat, Daniel Becker, Douglas Bennett +26
Core collapse supernovae are thought to be one of the main sources in the galaxy of elements heavier than iron. Understanding the origin of the elements is thus tightly linked to o…
