Description
Light dark matter searches and CEνNS experiments require thresholds of a few eVs, which pose the crucial challenge of calibrating such low energies. In this poster we present the status of the CRACK project, which develops an innovative method to calibrate cryogenic detectors in the range of eV without adding any permanent background to the experiments. It is based on a miniaturized particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) system with short half-life alpha emitters for low-threshold rare events cryogenic experiments, solving a problem faced by many other cryogenic experiments like CRESST.
