A transition-edge-sensor-based instrument for the measurement of individual He2* excimers in a superfluid 4He bath at 100 mK

<p> This dissertation is an account of the first calorimetric detection of individual He*<sub>2</sub> excimers within a bath of superfluid <sup>4</sup>He. When superfluid helium is subject to ionizing radiation, diatomic He molecules are created in both the singlet and...
