Metallic magnetic calorimeters (MMCs) are energy-dispersive X-ray detectors which provide an excellent energy resolution over a large dynamic range combined with a very good linearity. They are operated at mK temperatures and convert the energy of each incident photon into a temperature rise which is monitored by a paramagnetic sensor.
We present the MMC array maXs-100, which was used to investigate electron transitions in U90+ at CRYRING@FAIR. The detector features 8x8 pixels with a detection area of 1 cm2 and a stopping power of 40 % for 100 keV X-rays. We discuss details of the two detector systems used during the beam time, including the cryogenic setup and magnetic shielding. An absolute energy calibration with eV-precision at 100 keV as well as an energy resolution of 40 eV (FWHM) at 60 keV were demonstrated, allowing for high-precision X-ray spectroscopy.
This research has been conducted in the framework of the SPARC collaboration, experiment E138 of FAIR Phase-0 supported by GSI. We acknowledge substantial support by ErUM-FSP APPA (BMBF no 05P19VHFA1).
