Scintillation Light in SBND: Simulation, Reconstruction, and Expected Performance of the Photon Detection System

SBND Collaboration, P. Abratenko, R. Acciarri +180

SBND is the near detector of the Short-Baseline Neutrino program at Fermilab. Its location near to the Booster Neutrino Beam source and relatively large mass will allow the study o…
