Arnold1</dc:creator><dc:corporate_author/><dc:editor/><dc:description>The SuperNEMO experiment will search for neutrinoless double-beta decay (0νββ), and study the Standard-Model double-beta decay process (2νββ). The SuperNEMO technology can measure the energy of each of the electrons produced in a double-beta (ββ) decay, and can reconstruct the topology of their individual tracks. The study of the double-beta decay spectrum requires very accurate energy calibration to be carried out periodically. The SuperNEMO Demonstrator Module will be calibrated using 42 calibration sources, each consisting of a droplet of 207Bi within a frame assembly. The quality of these sources, which depends upon the entire ^207Bi droplet being contained within the frame, is key for correctly calibrating SuperNEMO's energy response. In this paper, we present a novel method for precisely measuring the exact geometry of the deposition of 207Bi droplets within the frames, using Timepix pixel detectors. We studied 49 different sources and selected 42 high-quality sources with the most central source positioning.</dc:description><dc:publisher/><dc:date>2021-07-23</dc:date><dc:nsf_par_id>10308967</dc:nsf_par_id><dc:journal_name>Journal of instrumentation</dc:journal_name><dc:journal_volume>16</dc:journal_volume><dc:journal_issue/><dc:page_range_or_elocation/><dc:issn>1748-0221</dc:issn><dc:isbn/><dc:doi>https://doi.org/doi:10.1088/1748-0221/16/07/T07012</dc:doi><dcq:identifierAwardId>1811901</dcq:identifierAwardId><dc:subject/><dc:version_number/><dc:location/><dc:rights/><dc:institution/><dc:sponsoring_org>National Science Foundation</dc:sponsoring_org></record></records></rdf:RDF>
