The SNO+ Experiment
SNO+ Collaboration, :, V. Albanese +251
The SNO+ experiment is located 2 km underground at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Canada. A low background search for neutrinoless double beta () decay will be conducted using 780 tonnes…
Development, characterisation, and deployment of the SNO+ liquid scintillator
SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. R. Anderson +223
A liquid scintillator consisting of linear alkylbenzene as the solvent and 2,5-diphenyloxazole as the fluor was developed for the SNO+ experiment. This mixture was chosen as it is…
Triplet Lifetime in Gaseous Argon
Michael Akashi-Ronquest, Amanda Bacon, Christopher Benson +27
MiniCLEAN is a single-phase liquid argon dark matter experiment. During the initial cooling phase, impurities within the cold gas (140 K) were monitored by measuring the scintil…
Current Status and Future Prospects of the SNO+ Experiment
SNO+ Collaboration, :, S. Andringa +155
SNO+ is a large liquid scintillator-based experiment located 2km underground at SNOLAB, Sudbury, Canada. It reuses the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory detector, consisting of a 12m di…
Improving Photoelectron Counting and Particle Identification in Scintillation Detectors with Bayesian Techniques
M. Akashi-Ronquest, P. -A. Amaudruz, M. Batygov +79
Many current and future dark matter and neutrino detectors are designed to measure scintillation light with a large array of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). The energy resolution and…
Update on the MiniCLEAN Dark Matter Experiment
K. Rielage, M. Akashi-Ronquest, M. Bodmer +43
The direct search for dark matter is entering a period of increased sensitivity to the hypothetical Weakly Interacting Massive Particle (WIMP). One such technology that is being ex…
Characterization of protonated and deuterated Tetra-Phenyl Butadiene Film in a Polystyrene Matrix
V. M. Gehman, T. M. Ito, W. C. Griffith +1
We study the effect of deuteration and annealing on the fluorescence spectrum shape and VUV to visible conversion efficiency of TPB films in a polystyrene matrix with input light f…
Characterization of the Hamamatsu R11780 12 inch Photomultiplier Tube
J. Brack, B. Delgado, J. Dhooghe +11
Future large water Cherenkov and scintillator detectors have been proposed for measurements of long baseline neutrino oscillations, proton decay, supernova and solar neutrinos. To…
Measurement of scintillation efficiency for nuclear recoils in liquid argon
D. Gastler, E. Kearns, A. Hime +6
The scintillation light yield of liquid argon from nuclear recoils relative to electronic recoils has been measured as a function of recoil energy from 10 keVr up to 250 keVr. The…
