Abstract

The latest results of the measurements on the vibration isolation system of MiniGRAIL at room temperature as well as an overview of the results of the ultra-cryogenic tests with the dilution refrigerator are presented. Two types of capacitive transducers have been developed and tested separately in a cryogenic set-up. The rosette-design transducers have been mounted on the sphere and tested at low temperature. We also report the progress in developing a two-mode inductive transducer with an Al5056 resonator as a second resonating mass and a Nb film coil as superconducting pick-up loop. Furthermore, we developed and tested two double-SQUID systems based on two types of dc SQUIDs as sensors and a DROS as the preamplifier stage.
