Abstract

We are developing an x-ray imaging spectrometer for Super DIOS satellite mission, a future x-ray observatory, planned by JAXA, to be launched in 2030’s. Super DIOS will reveal the nature of the missing baryon in the warm-hot intergalactic medium because of its fine energy and angular resolution, large eﬀective area and large field of view. A main detector on-board Super DIOS consists of a transition-edge sensor (TES) microcalorimeter array of over 30,000 pixels working at a temperature below 100 mK and it poses a considerable technical diﬃculty to the readout. A microwave superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) multiplexing is promising technique and expected to achieve a large scale readout of more than 30,000 pixels. We describe our development of a 40-channel microwave SQUID multiplexer with low-noise characteristics∗ and a demonstration of simultaneously reading out 40-pixel TESs. Finally, we discuss a future prospect and a feasibility of reading out an array of more than 30,000 pixels.
