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 ...

SAN FRANCISCO – While constructing its own climate-monitoring constellation, Silicon startup Muon Space is earning more than $60 million designing, building and operating remote-sensing ...

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 ...

This apparent discrepancy in the muon’s “magnetic moment” has been significant to physicists because it could arise via nudges from undiscovered particles that are unaccounted for by current ...

These are the sensors used to detect the weakly interacting muon particles. Each scintillator sensor is extremely dense to maximize the chances that a muon will interact with it. Arranged in a grid, ...

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.

It is therefore essential to develop an efficient muon veto, with a detection efficiency of more than 99 %. This will be realized in NUCLEUS through a compact cube assembly of plastic scintillator ...
