The Eos detector: a demonstrator of hybrid optical detection technology
Eos Collaboration, S. Arora, M. Askins +64
Eos is an R&D testbed for hybrid detector technologies, featuring state-of-the-art sub-ns photosensors, the first implementation of dichroicons in a large-scale demonstrator, and t…
Measurement of Light Yield Response of Gd-compatible Water-based Liquid Scintillator with the Brookhaven 1-ton testbed
S. Gwon, M. Askins, D. M. Asner +19
The Water-based Liquid Scintillator (WbLS) enables hybrid detection by combining scintillation and Cherenkov signals, providing superior event reconstruction capabilities compared…
Design, construction, and operation of a 1-ton Water-based Liquid scintillator detector at Brookhaven National Laboratory
X. Xiang, G. Yang, S. Andrade +20
Water-based liquid scintillators (WbLS) are attractive neutrino detector materials because they allow us to tune the ratio of the Cherenkov and scintillation signals. Using WbLS la…
EOS: a demonstrator of hybrid optical detector technology
T. Anderson, E. Anderssen, M. Askins +61
EOS is a technology demonstrator, designed to explore the capabilities of hybrid event detection technology, leveraging both Cherenkov and scintillation light simultaneously. With…
Optical calibration of the SNO+ detector in the water phase with deployed sources
SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. R. Anderson +120
SNO+ is a large-scale liquid scintillator experiment with the primary goal of searching for neutrinoless double beta decay, and is located approximately 2 km underground in SNOLAB,…
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…
Measurement of Muon-induced High-energy Neutrons from Rock in an Underground Gd-doped Water Detector
F. Sutanto, O. A. Akindele, M. Askins +9
We present a measurement of the rate of correlated neutron captures in the WATCHBOY detector, deployed at a depth of approximately 390 meters water equivalent (m.w.e.) in the Kimba…
Measurement of neutron-proton capture in the SNO+ water phase
The SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. R. Anderson +130
The SNO+ experiment collected data as a low-threshold water Cherenkov detector from September 2017 to July 2019. Measurements of the 2.2-MeV produced by neutron capture on hydr…
Directionally Accelerated Detection of an Unknown Second Reactor with Antineutrinos for Mid-Field Nonproliferation Monitoring
D. L. Danielson, O. A. Akindele, M. Askins +67
When monitoring a reactor site for nuclear nonproliferation purposes, the presence of an unknown or hidden nuclear reactor could be obscured by the activities of a known reactor of…
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…
The Physics and Nuclear Nonproliferation Goals of WATCHMAN: A WAter CHerenkov Monitor for ANtineutrinos
M. Askins, M. Bergevin, A. Bernstein +23
This article describes the physics and nonproliferation goals of WATCHMAN, the WAter Cherenkov Monitor for ANtineutrinos. The baseline WATCHMAN design is a kiloton scale gadolinium…
