Characterization of calorimeter responses under laboratory conditions thanks to an optimized transient thermal test bench [PDF]
This paper presents an experimental study of the calibration of a non-adiabatic single-cell calorimeter called KAROLINA. This type of sensor is used to quantify the nuclear heating rate inside MTRs (Material Testing Reactors).

Understanding temperature modulated calorimetry through studies of a model system [PDF]
Temperature Modulated calorimetry is widely used but still raises some fundamental questions. In this paper we study a model system as a test sample to address some of them. The model has a nontrivial spectrum of relaxation times. We investigate temperature modulated calorimetry at constant average temperature to precise the meaning of the frequency ...
