Calibration of the EDELWEISS cryogenic heat-and-ionization germanium detectors for dark matter search

Several aspects of the analysis of the data obtained with the cryogenic heat-and-ionization Ge detectors used by the EDELWEISS dark matter search experiment are presented. Their calibration, the determination of their energy threshold, fiducial volume and nuclear recoil acceptance are detailed.
