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…
Scintillator ageing of the T2K near detectors from 2010 to 2021
The T2K Collaboration, K. Abe, N. Akhlaq +355
The T2K experiment widely uses plastic scintillator as a target for neutrino interactions and an active medium for the measurement of charged particles produced in neutrino interac…
First Gadolinium Loading to Super-Kamiokande
K. Abe, C. Bronner, Y. Hayato +212
In order to improve Super-Kamiokande's neutron detection efficiency and to thereby increase its sensitivity to the diffuse supernova neutrino background flux, 13 tons of $\rm Gd_2(…
The Mini-CAPTAIN Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber
CAPTAIN Collaboration, C. E. Taylor, B. Bhandari +73
This manuscript describes the commissioning of the Mini-CAPTAIN liquid argon detector in a neutron beam at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE), which led to a first meas…
J-PARC Neutrino Beamline Upgrade Technical Design Report
K. Abe, H. Aihara, A. Ajmi +381
In this document, technical details of the upgrade plan of the J-PARC neutrino beamline for the extension of the T2K experiment are described. T2K has proposed to accumulate data c…
Hyper-Kamiokande Design Report
Hyper-Kamiokande Proto-Collaboration, :, K. Abe +313
On the strength of a double Nobel prize winning experiment (Super)Kamiokande and an extremely successful long baseline neutrino programme, the third generation Water Cherenkov dete…
A Long Baseline Neutrino Oscillation Experiment Using J-PARC Neutrino Beam and Hyper-Kamiokande
Kamiokande Working Group, K. Abe, H. Aihara +245
Hyper-Kamiokande will be a next generation underground water Cherenkov detector with a total (fiducial) mass of 0.99 (0.56) million metric tons, approximately 20 (25) times larger…
The CAPTAIN Detector and Physics Program
The CAPTAIN Collaboration, H. Berns, H. Chen +44
The Cryogenic Apparatus for Precision Tests of Argon Interactions with Neutrino (CAP- TAIN) program is designed to make measurements of scientific importance to long-baseline neutr…
Calibration of the Super-Kamiokande Detector
K. Abe, Y. Hayato, T. Iida +130
Procedures and results on hardware level detector calibration in Super-Kamiokande (SK) are presented in this paper. In particular, we report improvements made in our calibration me…
Measurements of the T2K neutrino beam properties using the INGRID on-axis near detector
K. Abe, N. Abgrall, Y. Ajima +428
Precise measurement of neutrino beam direction and intensity was achieved based on a new concept with modularized neutrino detectors. INGRID (Interactive Neutrino GRID) is an on-ax…
The T2K ND280 Off-Axis Pi-Zero Detector
S. Assylbekov, B. E. Berger, H. Berns +53
The Pi-Zero detector (PØD) is one of the subdetectors that makes up the off-axis near detector for the Tokai-to-Kamioka (T2K) long baseline neutrino experiment. The primary goal fo…
