Hands on LUCIFER: particle discrimination in ZnMoO4 crystals

Abstract

The students will carry out the experimental activity in the frame of the LUCIFER project. The activity foresees the assembly and operation of bolometric detectors. In the specific, the students will directly put hands on the detector, designing and constructing a scintillating bolometer. The detector will be installed in a dilution refrigerator and operated at 10 mK. Finally, the students will analyze some preliminary data from the running setup.
