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…
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…
Longitudinal compression and transverse matching of electron bunch for external injection LPWA at ESCULAP
K. Wang, E. Baynard, C. Bruni +19
We present theoretical and numerical studies of longitudinal compression and transverse matching of electron bunch before injecting into the Laser-plasma Wake Field Accelerator (LW…
Results of the BiPo-1 prototype for radiopurity measurements for the SuperNEMO double beta decay source foils
J. Argyriades, R. Arnold, C. Augier +86
The development of BiPo detectors is dedicated to the measurement of extremely high radiopurity in Tl and Bi for the SuperNEMO double beta decay source foils. A mod…
Modelling of laser-plasma acceleration of relativistic electrons in the frame of ESCULAP project
E. Baynard, C. Bruni, K. Cassou +19
We present numerical simulations results on the injection and acceleration of a 10 MeV, 10 pC electrons beam in a plasma wave generated in a gas cell by a 2J, 45 fs laser beam. Thi…
SoLid: A short baseline reactor neutrino experiment
SoLid Collaboration, Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis +59
The SoLid experiment, short for Search for Oscillations with a Lithium-6 detector, is a new generation neutrino experiment which tries to address the key challenges for high precis…
