We need to consider the thermal sensor:Urms = √(C kB T2)where = 2 √(6/A) for A > 6 A = 6 – 10 for semiconductor thermistorA = 20 – 100 for TES
With 1 g Si crystal absorber @ 10 mKThermometer sensitivity A = 10We obtain
Urms < 1 eV
In reality there are contributions from:Johnson noise of sensors and polarization networksPhonon noise due to possible temperature gradientsElectronic noise of amplifier Microphonism...........

A simple comparison
Ionization detectors
Measure energy that goes into ionization(1/3 of energy)

Hybrid detectors: ionization and light
We can also measure photons and phonons at the same time:Scintillating calorimeters
First scintillating calorimeter (1992)Light read out made with Si photodiode
– discrimination in CaF2rejection efficiency ~ 99%
Problem: with photodiode threshold is to high for dark matter searches
