Description

In recent years, high sensitivity, low-threshold detectors employing transition edge sensor (TES) read out technology have garnered significant interest in the field of rare-event physics. Numerous experiments have incorporated these detectors for direct dark matter searches, Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) studies and beyond. As these experiments scale up and operate larger arrays, a key challenge is to enhance the reproducibility among detectors while promoting modularity in terms of both the choice of absorber and sensor.
COSINUS (Cryogenic Observatory for SIgnals seen in Next-generation Underground Searches) has experimentally demonstrated that a novel cryogenic detector scheme, known as remoTES, can address these challenges. This innovative design can streamline the mass fabrication of reliable and reproducible detectors for the next generation of low-mass, rare-event physics searches. This contribution will present results from the latest prototypes, highlighting ongoing optimization efforts across various absorbers and configurations.
