Test of the JUNO 20-inch PMTs during Installation
Haojie Dong, Zhaoyuan Peng, Zhonghua Qin +13
Photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) are widely used in neutrino experiments. As a new-generation neutrino observatory, JUNO requires an excellent energy resolution of 3% at 1 MeV. This wi…
Embedded underwater front-end electronics for the 3-inch photomultipliers in the JUNO experiment
Cédric Cerna, Miao He, Xiaoshan Jiang +591
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a 20-kton liquid scintillator-based, low-radioactivity, multi-purpose neutrino detector located 693 meters (1800 m.w.e.) und…
Comprehensive study of cosmogenic neutron production in large liquid scintillator detectors
Yijian Jiang, Jie Cheng, Haoqi Lu +1
Neutrons produced by cosmic ray muons constitute a significant background for underground experiments investigating neutron oscillations, neutrinoless double beta decay, dark matte…
Neutral-current background induced by atmospheric neutrinos at large liquid-scintillator detectors: III. Comprehensive prediction for low energy neutrinos
Jie Cheng, Min Li, Yu-Feng Li +3
Atmospheric neutrinos play a vital role in generating irreducible backgrounds in liquid-scintillator (LS) detectors via their neutral-current (NC) interactions with C nuclei…
