Measurement of the cosmogenic neutron yield in Super-Kamiokande with gadolinium loaded water
Kamiokande Collaboration, M. Shinoki, K. Abe +238
Cosmic-ray muons that enter the Super-Kamiokande detector cause hadronic showers due to spallation in water, producing neutrons and radioactive isotopes. Those are a major backgrou…
Study on degradation of VUV-sensitivity of MPPC for liquid xenon scintillation detector by radiation damage in MEG II experiment
K. Ieki, T. Iwamoto, S. Kobayashi +6
In the MEG II experiment, the liquid xenon gamma-ray detector uses Multi-Pixel Photon Counters (MPPC) which are sensitive to vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light under a high-intensity m…
Development of ultra-low mass and high-rate capable RPC based on Diamond-Like Carbon electrodes for MEG II experiment
Kensuke Yamamoto, Sei Ban, Kei Ieki +5
A new type of resistive plate chamber with thin-film electrodes based on diamond-like carbon is under development for background identification in the MEG II experiment. Installed…
Searching for neutrinos from solar flares across solar cycles 23 and 24 with the Super-Kamiokande detector
K. Okamoto, K. Abe, Y. Hayato +242
Neutrinos associated with solar flares (solar-flare neutrinos) provide information on particle acceleration mechanisms during the impulsive phase of solar flares. We searched using…
Neutron Tagging following Atmospheric Neutrino Events in a Water Cherenkov Detector
K. Abe, Y. Haga, Y. Hayato +301
We present the development of neutron-tagging techniques in Super-Kamiokande IV using a neural network analysis. The detection efficiency of neutron capture on hydrogen is estimate…
Search for Cosmic-ray Boosted Sub-GeV Dark Matter using Recoil Protons at Super-Kamiokande
Kamiokande Collaboration, K. Abe, Y. Hayato +218
We report a search for cosmic-ray boosted dark matter with protons using the 0.37 megatonyears data collected at Super-Kamiokande experiment during the 1996-2018 period (SK…
