Enhanced low-energy supernova burst detection in large liquid argon time projection chambers enabled by Q-Pix
arXiv:2203.12109 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevD.106.032011
Abstract
The detection of neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae may reveal important process features as well as neutrino properties. The detection of supernova neutrinos is one of the main science drivers for future kiloton-scale neutrino detectors based on liquid argon. Here we show that for such detectors the intrinsically 3D readout in Q-Pix offers numerous advantages relative to a wire-based readout, such as higher reconstruction efficiency, lower energy threshold, considerably lower data rates, and potential pointing information.
