Scientific paper

It is shown that a calorimeter composed of a cylindrical-shape absorber of superconducting V metal, with 25 x 10 mm dimensions and weighing 15 g, is sensitive to thermal phonons that have been generated by the stopping and the absorption of a 5 MeV alpha-particle. A further improvement in energy resolution is expected via lowering of calorimeter operating temperature from 120 mK to 10-50 mK.
