“…At a given temperature, by adjusting the thermal link, τ can be made to vary, by construction, from 100 ms to the minimum value permitted by the power handling properties of the sensor. [24] The minimum value for neutron transmutation doped (NTD) germanium sensors is well approximated by τ = 1.8 × 10 −8 T −4 s. To measure the temperature change ∆T , anything whose property changes strongly with temperature may be employed. [25] A simple and traditional thermometer at low temperature is obtained with use of a highly doped semiconductor (near the metallic to semiconducting transition, or Mott transition).…”

We describe how the problem of measuring the neutrino mass led us to the development of low-temperature calorimetry. The search for a "17-keV neutrino" concluded with a negative result, but a wide range of applications are now carried on by us and by other groups in the fields of x-ray astronomy, recoil measurements of dark matter particles, high precision particle spectrometry, specific heat determinations, neutron detection, rare decay studies. The masses of the bolometers (calorimeters) extend from 1 mg to 1 Kg, nearly as large as for quantum detectors. By lowering the temperature into the 10-20 mK range, calorimetry is on the way to surpass substantially the high precision of particle metrology obtainable with the quantum detectors. Calorimeter developments and perspectives are discussed.
