Abstract :
Differential superheating curves at 385 mK of an Al grain suspension, with dimensions of the order of 5–15 μm and ellipsoidal geometry at 20% volume filling factor, indicate a majority of the transitions to occur from a metastable state and that these grains are thermally-nucleated by energy depositions of 6 keV X-rays. These results run counter to established convention that only the most uniform, spherical grains are required in detector fabrication.
