Description

The European LEAPS-INNOV project has launched a Research and Development program dedicated to the design of a new generation of germanium detectors for X-ray spectroscopy applications. The present article shows the results of the thermomechanical simulations of this design, based on finite element analysis (FEA) studies, under vacuum and cryogenic conditions. The first results of these simulations were published at IPAC'23*. In this new work, the final results are presented, which includes the thermal optimization of the detector with respect to the previous study, as well as new numerical simulations to investigate the effects of vibration transmission from the cryocooler to the head detector.

Funding Agency

This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No 101004728.
