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…
Design, construction, and operation of a 30-ton Water-based Liquid scintillator detector at Brookhaven National Laboratory
S. Andrade, A. Baldoni, D. F. Cowen +25
Water-based Liquid Scintillator (WbLS) was proposed over a decade ago as a novel detector medium that might allow the separation and tuning of the relative ratio of the Cherenkov a…
Performance of the Eos detector with water
Eos Collaboration, S. Arora, M. Askins +64
In this manuscript we present the first results from Eos, a four tonne optical detector located at the University of California, Berkeley. The primary goal of Eos is to demonstrate…
Neutrino monitoring of explosions for excluding fission yield
O. Benevides Rodrigues, N. S. Bowden, R. Carr +18
Nuclear fission produces neutrinos, so the absence of a neutrino signal can be used to set a limit on the fission content of an explosion. This capability could be employed on form…
Cosmogenic Neutron Production in Water at SNO+
SNO+ Collaboration, :, M. Abreu +112
Accurate measurement of the cosmogenic muon-induced neutron yield is crucial for constraining a significant background in a wide range of low-energy physics searches. Although prev…
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…
