International audience; BULLKID is an R&D project on a cryogenic particle detector to search for rare low-energy processes such as low-mass dark matter and neutrino coherent scattering off nuclei. The detector unit we are designing consists in an array of ~ 100 silicon absorbers sensed by phonon-mediated, microwave-multiplexed kinetic inductance detectors, with energy threshold below 100 eV and total target mass around 30 g. The single detector unit will be engineered to ensure a straightforward scalability to a future kg-scale experiment.
