1109.1193 (S. W. Leman)

Review of Physics and Monte Carlo Techniques as Relevant to a Cryogenic, Phonon and Ionization Readout, Radiation-Detector    [PDF]

S. W. Leman
This review discusses detector physics and Monte Carlo techniques for cryogenic, radiation detectors that utilize combined phonon and ionization readout. Particular focus is placed on instrumentation that is used in the Cryogenic Dark Matter Search detectors however the discussion is quite general and includes phonon and charge transport physics relevant at low temperatures. Sufficient tutorials and physics references are provided such that an interested reader can jump right into a detector Monte Carlo campaign.
