Scintillating properties of frozen new liquid scintillators [PDF]

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 1999
Abstract The light emission from scintillators which are liquid at room temperature was studied in the interval between +20°C and −120°C where the phase transition from liquid to solid takes place. The light yield measured at −120°C is about twice as much as that observed at +20°C.

Characterization of the scintillation response of water-based liquid scintillator to alpha particles, and implications for particle identification

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields, 2023
Next-generation large-scale neutrino detectors, from Eos, at the 1 t scale, to Theia, at the 10 s-of-kt scale, will utilize differences in both the scintillation and Cherenkov light emission for different particle species to perform background rejection.

Foraging for dark matter in large volume liquid scintillator neutrino detectors with multiscatter events [PDF]

Physical Review D, 2018
We show that dark matter with a per-nucleon scattering cross section $\gtrsim 10^{-28}~{\rm cm^2}$ could be discovered by liquid scintillator neutrino detectors like BOREXINO, SNO+, and JUNO.

Tracking with capillaries and liquid scintillator

Nuclear Physics B - Proceedings Supplements, 1998
The technique of glass capillaries filled with liquid scintillator allows the reconstruction of ionizing particle tracks with high spatial resolution. Detectors based on this technique consist of coherent arrays of capillaries having diameters of the order of 20 μ m.
