Scientific paper

In the search for non baryonic Dark Matter, bolometers are commonly used to detect WIMP's by measuring nuclear recoil energies. To determine the quenching factors of the germanium bolometer developped in the EDELWEISS experiment, low energy nuclear recoils are induced by elastic or inelastic scattering of monoenergetic neutrons produced by heavy ion beam involving inverse kinematics reactions. The multidetector array and neutron beam characteristics are described. A determination of the value of the luminescence quenching factor for a NaI(Tl) scintillator has been performed as a check of the experimental set up.
