Water-based Liquid Scintillator Detector as a New Technology Testbed for Neutrino Studies in Turkey [PDF]
, 2020 This study investigates the deployment of a medium-scale neutrino detector near Turkey's first nuclear power plant, the Akkuyu Nuclear Power Plant. The aim of this detector is to become a modular testbed for new technologies in the fields of new detection media and innovative photosensors. Such technologies include Water-based Liquid Scintillator (WbLS)
