We present the design, implementation and first tests of the superconducting LC filters and the frequency domain readout of spiderweb TES bolometers for the SWIPE experiment on the balloon-borne LSPE mission. LSPE is optimized to measure the linear polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background at large angular scales to find the imprint of inflation on the B-mode CMB polarization. The Short...

CALDER (Cryogenic wide-Area Light Detectors with Excellent Resolution) is a project for development of large area phonon mediated KID (Kinetic Inductance Detectors), for the detection of Cherenkov radiation emitted from βs in 0nDBD decay in TeO2.
The KIDs are a superconducting detectors mode of high quality factor superconducting resonators, which are coupled to a transmission line for...

The polarization structure of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) is one of the major challenges of modern observational cosmology. Microwave telescopes need sensitive cryogenic bolometers with an overall equivalent noise temperature in the nK range. In this poster, we present the development status of multimode spider-web bolometers for the balloon born mission “Large Scale Polarization...

It is well known that superconducting (SC) materials repel magnetic field, whereas paramagnetic ones concentrate flux lines in their interior. By using concentric tubes of the two materials, the magnetic field inside a cylinder is canceled without modifying the external applied field. Analytical solutions exist, which provide a relation between the thickness of the paramagnetic material and...

One of the ambitious goals of current studies on accelerators is the possibility to work at the highest energy frontier even after the LHC era. To this aim, CERN is preparing a conceptual design report for Future Circular Colliders (FCC) with emphasis on proton-proton (hh) high-energy frontier machines. For FCC-hh one of the foreseen effort is the reduction of the machine impedance to allow...

The star formation mechanisms at work in the early universe remain one of the major unsolved problems of modern astrophysics. Many of the luminous galaxies present during the period of peak star formation (at redshift of about 2.5) were heavily enshrouded in dust, which makes observing their properties difficult at optical wavelengths. However, a rich variety of spectral lines exist at...

The calorimetric measurement of the energy released in a nuclear beta decay is a powerful tool to determine the effective electron-neutrino mass. In the last years, the progress on low temperature detector technologies has allowed to design large scale experiments aiming at pushing down the sensitivity on the neutrino mass below 1 eV. Even with outstanding performances in both energy (~ eV on...

HOLMES is a new experiment to directly measure the neutrino mass with a sensitivity as low as 0.4 eV. HOLMES will perform a calorimetric measurement of the energy released in the electron capture decay of $^{163}$Ho.
The calorimetric measurement eliminates systematic uncertainties arising from the use of external beta sources, as in experiments with beta spectrometers.
HOLMES will deploy a...

ATHENA, the large X-Ray mission proposed to the European Space Agency, will operate the largest array of superconducting TES micro-calorimeters at 50 mK with 2 eV FWHM resolution in L2. Cosmics (protons and light nuclei) are expected to produce a high background resulting in a loss of detection of efficiency of faint diffuse or far X-ray source like Worm Hot Intergalactic Medium or weak...

CRESST-II is a cryogenic direct dark matter search aiming for the detection of WIMPs via elastic scattering off nuclei in CaWO4 target crystals. CRESST detectors are optimized for low thresholds and a precise energy reconstruction in order to measure tiny nuclear recoils (<1keV), which are expected for light WIMPs (O(1GeV/c2)).
Phonons induced by particle interactions in the target crystal...
