Development, characterisation, and deployment of the SNO+ liquid scintillator [PDF]

Journal of Instrumentation, 2020
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 compatible with acrylic and has a competitive light yield to pre-existing ...

The scintillation of liquid argon [PDF]

EPL (Europhysics Letters), 2010
A spectroscopic study of liquid argon from the vacuum ultraviolet at 110 nm to 1000 nm is presented. Excitation was performed using continuous and pulsed 12 keV electron beams. The emission is dominated by the analogue of the so called 2nd excimer continuum. Various additional emission features were found.

Neutral-current background induced by atmospheric neutrinos at large liquid-scintillator detectors. I. Model predictions [PDF]

Physical Review D, 2020
The experimental searches for diffuse supernova neutrino background and proton decay in next-generation large liquid-scintillator (LS) detectors are competitive with and complementary to those in the water-Cherenkov detectors. In this paper, we carry out

Cherenkov and scintillation light separation in organic liquid scintillators [PDF]

The European Physical Journal C, 2017
The CHErenkov / Scintillation Separation experiment (CHESS) has been used to demonstrate the separation of Cherenkov and scintillation light in both linear alkylbenzene (LAB) and LAB with 2g/L of PPO as a fluor (LAB/PPO). This is the first such demonstration for the more challenging LAB/PPO cocktail and improves on previous results for LAB.

Measurement of radiation damage of water-based liquid scintillator and liquid scintillator [PDF]

Journal of Instrumentation, 2015
Liquid scintillating phantoms have been proposed as a means to perform real-time 3D dosimetry for proton therapy treatment plan verification. We have studied what effect radiation damage to the scintillator will have upon this application. We have performed measurements of the degradation of the light yield and optical attenuation length of liquid ...
