=== InGrid Based X-ray detector === The sole aim of this detector is to enhance the sensitivity of CAST to energy thresholds around 1 KeV range. This is an improved sensitive detector set up in 2014 behind the X-ray telescope, for the search of solar chameleons which have low threshold energies. The InGrid detector and its granular Timepix pad readout with low energy threshold of 0.1 KeV for photon detection hunts the solar chameleons in this range.<ref name=":2" /><ref>{{cite journal | last1=Krieger | first1=Christoph | last2=Desch | first2=Klaus | last3=Kaminski | first3=Jochen | last4=Lupberger | first4=Michael | title=Operation of an InGrid based X-ray detector at the CAST experiment | journal=EPJ Web of Conferences | publisher=EDP Sciences | volume=174 | year=2018 | issn=2100-014X | doi=10.1051/epjconf/201817402008 | page=02008|bibcode=2018EPJWC.17402008K|doi-access=free}}</ref> [[File:Cast3.jpg|thumb|391x391px|A CAST experiment member working at the RADES detector]]
