Characterization of a CsI(Tl) Scintillator Coupled to a SiPM at Cryogenic Temperatures
M. Mirzakhani, R. Mahapatra, M. Platt
We report on the scintillation characterization of a 1 cm^3 CsI(Tl) crystal coupled to a 6 x 6 mm^2 SiPM read out with a custom transimpedance amplifier at cryogenic temperatures.…
A GEANT4-Based Simulation of Directional Neutron Detectors Using Liquid Scintillators and Boron Carbide Moderators
J. -H. Chen, M. Mirzakhani, R. Mahapatra +1
We present a simulation-based study of a compact directional neutron detector composed of liquid scintillator, Cesium Iodide, with boron carbide (B4C) moderation, and silicon photo…
Measurement of the Liquid Argon Scintillation Pulse Shape Using Differentiable Simulation in the Coherent CAPTAIN-Mills Experiment
A. A. Aguilar-Arevalo, S. Biedron, J. Boissevain +42
The Coherent CAPTAIN-Mills (CCM) experiment is a liquid argon (LAr) light collection detector searching for MeV-scale neutrino and Beyond Standard Model physics signatures. Two hun…
First Event-by-Event Identification of Cherenkov Radiation from Sub-MeV Particles in Liquid Argon
A. A. Aguilar-Arevalo, S. Biedron, J. Boissevain +42
This Letter reports the event-by-event observation of Cherenkov light from sub-MeV electrons in a high scintillation light-yield liquid argon (LAr) detector by the Coherent CAPTAIN…
