It also includes a technical description of the experiment, including the crystals and their encasements, muon detectors and liquid scintillator, and sets out the roles of each in detecting dark ...

This research on the muon veto detector system for the TAO ... More information: Guang Luo et al, Performance of plastic scintillator modules for top veto tracker at Taishan Antineutrino ...

Comprising 160 plastic scintillator (PS) modules with optimized wavelength shifting fiber (WLS-fiber) arrangements and silicon photomultipliers, the system offers enhanced light yield and muon ...

According to experts, the liquid scintillator serves as the medium for ... JUNO veto detector system which is designed for cosmic muon detection and background reduction. Photo: Courtesy of ...

Abstract: LiquidO is an innovative scintillator-based radiation detector concept. The core idea is to achieve the self-segmentation of a detector by exploiting stochastic light confinement in a highly ...

Currently there is no muon tracker for the scintillator phase of SNO+. This poster presents a novel method of muon track reconstruction by using the high photon sampling from muons and the assumption ...

A new TAIGA-Muon unit is being set up in the Tunka Valley ... The first one has grooves on one frontal scintillator surface for WLS fibers articulated with a SiPM light receiver. It has a small size ...

Furthermore, it should have a very low material budget to minimize the deflection of the muon trajectory by multiple coulomb scattering. A first prototype of this detector is a 100 µm thick plastic ...

A tiny wobbling particle may be about to reveal a fifth force of nature, scientists behind one of the biggest particle physics experiments say. Physicists at the Fermi National Accelerator ...

The first step in using the telescope data is to calculate the individual detection efficiency of the muon sensitive scintillator bars, that use solid state photomultipliers (SiPM) as light sensors, ...

Abstract: The existing muon detectors for high-energy physics experiments are mainly made of gas chambers such as Resistive Plate Chambers, Limited Streamer Tubes or Multi Wire Proportional Chambers.
