Figure 1From: Repeated radiation damage and thermal annealing of avalanche photodiodesCross-section schematic of the detector module (DM) inside a passive cooler box. A cold finger thermally interfaces dry ice with the DM. The DM and cold finger assembly is mounted on its side such that protons, entering the cooler through the side wall, are minimally disturbed by various mechanical structures prior to incidence on the detectors (remaining structures are accounted for in our fluence model).
