Abstract
The TRISTAN project is the upgrade of the KATRIN experiment designed for the search of sterile neutrinos by replacing the current KATRIN detector with a multipixel SDD (Silicon Drift Detector) matrix. We have characterized SDDs response to electrons using a SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope) as an electron source and a Geant4-based simulation whose output is processed with an empirical function to reproduce data. We have crosschecked this model by reconstructing backscattering measurements obtained using a radioactive electron source.
