Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Sensitivity of the XLZD Rare Event Observatory
XLZD Collaboration, J. Aalbers, K. Abe +441
The XLZD collaboration is developing a two-phase xenon time projection chamber with an active mass of 60 to 80 t capable of probing the remaining WIMP-nucleon interaction parameter…
Second gadolinium loading to Super-Kamiokande
K. Abe, C. Bronner, Y. Hayato +246
The first loading of gadolinium (Gd) into Super-Kamiokande in 2020 was successful, and the neutron capture efficiency on Gd reached 50\%. To further increase the Gd neutron capture…
PocketWATCH: Design and operation of a multi-use test bed for water Cherenkov detector components in pure and gadolinium loaded water
Matthew Thiesse, Stephen T. Wilson, Jack Fannon +4
The PocketWATCH facility is a unique multi-purpose test bed designed to replicate the conditions of large water Cherenkov detectors. Housed at the University of Sheffield, the faci…
Acceptance tests of Hamamatsu R7081 photomultiplier tubes
O. A. Akindele, A. Bernstein, S. Boyd +29
Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are traditionally an integral part of large underground experiments as they measure the light emission from particle interactions within the enclosed d…
Characterisation of the Temperature-dependent Dark Rate of Hamamatsu R7081-100 10" Photomultiplier Tubes
Steve T. Wilson, Samuel Fargher, Robert J. Foster +4
Dark noise is a dominant background in photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), which are commonly used in liquid-filled particle detectors for single-photon detection to see the results of p…
Remote Reactor Ranging via Antineutrino Oscillations
Steve T. Wilson, Chris Cotsford, James Armitage +3
Antineutrinos from nuclear reactors have the potential to be used for reactor monitoring in the mid- to far-field under certain conditions. Antineutrinos are an unshieldable signal…
Sensitivity of an antineutrino monitor for remote nuclear reactor discovery
Liz Kneale, Steve T Wilson, Tara Appleyard +3
Antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor comprise an unshieldable signal which carries information about the core. A gadolinium-doped, water-based Cherenkov detector could detect react…
