We report on measurements of the magnetic flux variation produced by the transition from the superconducting to the normal state of thin-film indium dot arrays subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field. The study was carried out measuring the superheating-supercooling hysteresis curve of the arrays by means of a first order gradiometer of 3 cm3 volume coupled to a dc-SQUID. With this setup we also measured the signal produced by the individual dot flipping, in the perspective of using these arrays as microcalorimeter particle detectors.
