Study of cosmic ray impacts on cryogenic high sensitivity detectors

Abstract

After the Planck mission's launch in 2009, bolometers of its High Frequency Instrument (HFI) were considerably affected by cosmic rays, which necessitated several years of post-treatment to clean the data. To study the susceptibility of high sensitivity cryogenic detectors to particle impacts, IAS has developed the DRACuLA facility. We present the results of the latest two test campaigns performed on new generation of detectors.
