Spatial resolution and efficiency of prototype sensors for the LHCb VELO Upgrade
E. Buchanan, K. Akiba, M. van Beuzekom +15
A comprehensive study of the spatial resolution and detection efficiency of sensor prototypes developed for the LHCb VELO upgrade is presented. Data samples were collected at the C…
Commissioning and Operation of the Readout System for the SoLid Neutrino Detector
Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, G. Ban +53
The SoLid experiment aims to measure neutrino oscillation at a baseline of 6.4 m from the BR2 nuclear reactor in Belgium. Anti-neutrinos interact via inverse beta decay (IBD), resu…
Development of a Quality Assurance Process for the SoLid Experiment
Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, G. Ban +53
The SoLid experiment has been designed to search for an oscillation pattern induced by a light sterile neutrino state, utilising the BR2 reactor of SCKCEN, in Belgium. The…
Charge collection properties of prototype sensors for the LHCb VELO upgrade
R. Geertsema, K. Akiba, M. van Beuzekom +20
An extensive sensor testing campaign is presented, dedicated to measuring the charge collection properties of prototype candidates for the Vertex Locator (VELO) detector for the up…
Search for Very-Short-Baseline Oscillations of Reactor Antineutrinos with the SoLid Detector
Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, L. Arnold +57
In this letter we report the first scientific result based on antineutrinos emitted from the BR2 reactor at SCK CEN. The SoLid experiment uses a novel type of highly granular detec…
Optimisation of the scintillation light collection and uniformity for the SoLid experiment
Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, W. Beaumont +48
This paper presents a comprehensive optimisation study to maximise the light collection efficiency of scintillating cube elements used in the SoLid detector. Very short baseline re…
