Performance of a first multi-cell WOM-based liquid scintillator detector as prototype for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger
M. Böhles, A. Brignoli, P. Deucher +20
The Search for Hidden Particles (SHiP) Experiment was approved by CERN in 2024. Feebly-interacting particles that are produced in a proton Beam Dump Facility (BDF) will decay in th…
Performance of Prototypes with Different Reflector Materials for the SHiP Liquid Scintillator Surrounding Background Tagger
A. Brignoli, P. Deucher, C. Eckardt +19
The baseline technology for the Surrounding Background Tagger of the recently approved SHiP experiment relies on liquid scintillator composed of linear alkylbenzene and 2,5-dipheny…
Performance of a First Full-Size WOM-Based Liquid Scintillator Detector Cell as Prototype for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger
J. Alt, O. Bezshyyko, M. Böhles +21
As a prototype detector for the SHiP Surrounding Background Tagger (SBT), we constructed a cell (120 cm x 80 cm x 25 cm) made from corten steel that is filled with liquid scintilla…
First measurement of the surface tension of a liquid scintillator based on Linear Alkylbenzene (HYBLENE 113)
SHiP SBT collaboration, J. Alt, J. Arutinov +29
We measured the surface tension of linear alkylbenzene (LAB) HYBLENE 113 mixed with Diphenyloxazole (PPO) as well as of pure LAB HYBLENE 113 as part of material studies for the liq…
