Abstract

Abstract Materials for radiation detection are critically important and urgently demanded in diverse fields, starting from fundamental scientific research to medical diagnostics, homeland security, and environmental monitoring. Low-dimensional halides (LDHs) exhibiting efficient self-trapped exciton (STE) emission with high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) have recently shown a great potential as scintillators. However, an overlooked issue of exciton-exciton interaction in LDHs under ionizing radiation hinders the broadening of its radiation detection applications. Here, we demonstrate an exceptional enhancement of exciton-harvesting efficiency in zero-dimensional (0D) Cs3Cu2I5:Tl halide single crystals by forming strongly localized Tl-bound excitons. Because of the suppression of non-radiative exciton-exciton interaction, an excellent α/β pulse-shape-discrimination (PSD) figure-of-merit (FoM) factor of 2.64, a superior rejection ratio of 10−9, and a high scintillation yield of 26 000 photons MeV−1 under 5.49 MeV α-ray are achieved in Cs3Cu2I5:Tl single crystals, outperforming the commercial ZnS:Ag/PVT composites for charged particle detection applications. Furthermore, a radiation detector prototype based on Cs3Cu2I5:Tl single crystal demonstrates the capability of identifying radioactive 220Rn gas for environmental radiation monitoring applications. We believe that the exciton-harvesting strategy proposed here can greatly boost the applications of LDHs materials.

Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a world-leading scintillation light yield among inorganic crystals measured from a 0.5 kg pure-CsI detector operated at 77 Kelvin. Scintillation photons were detected by two 2-inch Hamamatsu SiPM arrays equipped with cryogenic front-end electronics. Benefiting the light yield enhancement of pure-CsI at low temperatures and the high photon detection efficiency of SiPM, a light yield of 30.1 photoelectrons per keV energy deposit was obtained for X-rays and $$\gamma $$ γ -rays with energies from 5.9 to 59.6 keV. Instrumental and physical effects in the light yield measurement are carefully analyzed. This is the first stable cryogenic operation of kg-scale pure-CsI crystal readout by SiPM arrays at liquid nitrogen temperatures for several days. The world-leading light yield opens a door for the usage of pure-CsI crystal in several fields, particularly in detecting the coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering of reactor neutrinos. The potential of using pure-CsI crystals in neutrino physics is discussed in the paper.

Abstract

Abstract In this study, much work has been performed to accurately and efficiently develop representative actual driving cycles. Electric vehicle road tests were conducted and the associated data were gathered based on the manual driving method, and the Changsha Driving Cycle Construction (CS-DCC) method was proposed to achieve systematical construction of a representative driving cycle from the original data. The results show that the refined data exhibit greater stability and a smoother pattern in contrast to the original data after noise reduction by five-scale wavelet analysis. The Gaussian Kernel Principal Component Analysis (KPCA) algorithm is chosen to reduce the dimensionality of the characteristic matrix, and the number of principal components is selected as 5 with a cumulative contribution rate of 85.99%. The average error of the characteristic parameters between the optimized drive cycle and the total data is further reduced from 13.6 to 6.1%, with a reduction ratio of 55.1%. Meanwhile, the constructed driving cycle has prominent local characteristics compared with four standard driving cycles, demonstrating the necessity of constructing an actual driving cycle that reflects localized driving patterns. The findings present a powerful application of artificial intelligence in advancing engineering technologies.

Abstract

Abstract Main goal of the JUNO experiment is to determine the neutrino mass ordering using a 20 kt liquid-scintillator detector. Its key feature is an excellent energy resolution of at least 3% at 1 MeV, for which its instruments need to meet a certain quality and thus have to be fully characterized. More than 20,000 20-inch PMTs have been received and assessed by JUNO after a detailed testing program which began in 2017 and elapsed for about four years. Based on this mass characterization and a set of specific requirements, a good quality of all accepted PMTs could be ascertained. This paper presents the performed testing procedure with the designed testing systems as well as the statistical characteristics of all 20-inch PMTs intended to be used in the JUNO experiment, covering more than fifteen performance parameters including the photocathode uniformity. This constitutes the largest sample of 20-inch PMTs ever produced and studied in detail to date, i.e. 15,000 of the newly developed 20-inch MCP-PMTs from Northern Night Vision Technology Co. (NNVT) and 5000 of dynode PMTs from Hamamatsu Photonics K. K.(HPK).

Abstract

Recent observations have confirmed circumplanetary disks (CPDs) embedded in parental protoplanetary disks (PPDs). On the other hand, planetary-mass companions and planetary-mass objects (PMOs) are likely to harbor their own accretion disks. Unlike PPDs, CPDs and other disks around planet analogs are generally too compact to be spatially resolved by current instrumentation. In this study, we generate over 4000 spectral energy distributions of circum-PMO disks (CPMODs) with various host temperature and disk properties, which can be categorized into four prototypes, i.e., full, pretransitional, transitional, and evolved CPMODs. We propose a classification scheme based on their near-to-mid-infrared colors. Using those CPMOD models, we synthesize JWST (NIRCam and MIRI) photometry for F444W, F1000W, and F2550W wide filters. We show that F444W−F1000W and F444−F2550W colors can be applied to distinguish different types of CPMODs, especially for those around hot hosts. Our results indicate that the ongoing and future JWST observations are promising to unveil structures and properties of CPMODs.

Abstract

The physics potential of detecting ^8 B solar neutrinos will be exploited at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), in a model-independent manner by using three distinct channels of the charged current (CC), neutral current (NC), and elastic scattering (ES) interactions. Due to the largest-ever mass of ^13 C nuclei in the liquid scintillator detectors and the expected low background level, ^8 B solar neutrinos are observable in the CC and NC interactions on ^13 C for the first time. By virtue of optimized event selections and muon veto strategies, backgrounds from the accidental coincidence, muon-induced isotopes, and external backgrounds can be greatly suppressed. Excellent signal-to-background ratios can be achieved in the CC, NC, and ES channels to guarantee the observation of the ^8 B solar neutrinos. From the sensitivity studies performed in this work, we show that JUNO, with 10 yr of data, can reach the 1 σ precision levels of 5%, 8%, and 20% for the ^8 B neutrino flux, ${\sin }^{2}{\theta }_{12}$ , and ${\rm{\Delta }}{m}_{21}^{2}$ , respectively. Probing the details of both solar physics and neutrino physics would be unique and helpful. In addition, when combined with the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory measurement, the world's best precision of 3% is expected for the measurement of the ^8 B neutrino flux.

Abstract

Abstract We study damping signatures at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a medium-baseline reactor neutrino oscillation experiment. These damping signatures are motivated by various new physics models, including quantum decoherence, ν 3 decay, neutrino absorption, and wave packet decoherence. The phenomenological effects of these models can be characterized by exponential damping factors at the probability level. We assess how well JUNO can constrain these damping parameters and how to disentangle these different damping signatures at JUNO. Compared to current experimental limits, JUNO can significantly improve the limits on τ 3/m 3 in the ν 3 decay model, the width of the neutrino wave packet σ x , and the intrinsic relative dispersion of neutrino momentum σ rel.

Abstract

Abstract The OSIRIS detector is a subsystem of the liquid scintillator filling chain of the JUNO reactor neutrino experiment. Its purpose is to validate the radiopurity of the scintillator to assure that all components of the JUNO scintillator system work to specifications and only neutrino-grade scintillator is filled into the JUNO Central Detector. The aspired sensitivity level of $$10^{-16}\hbox { g/g}$$ 10 - 16 g/g of $$^{238}\hbox {U}$$ 238 U and $$^{232}\hbox {Th}$$ 232 Th requires a large ( $$\sim 20\,\hbox {m}^3$$ ∼ 20 m 3 ) detection volume and ultralow background levels. The present paper reports on the design and major components of the OSIRIS detector, the detector simulation as well as the measuring strategies foreseen and the sensitivity levels to U/Th that can be reached in this setup.

Abstract

Abstract JUNO is a massive liquid scintillator detector with a primary scientific goal of determining the neutrino mass ordering by studying the oscillated anti-neutrino flux coming from two nuclear power plants at 53 km distance. The expected signal anti-neutrino interaction rate is only 60 counts per day (cpd), therefore a careful control of the background sources due to radioactivity is critical. In particular, natural radioactivity present in all materials and in the environment represents a serious issue that could impair the sensitivity of the experiment if appropriate countermeasures were not foreseen. In this paper we discuss the background reduction strategies undertaken by the JUNO collaboration to reduce at minimum the impact of natural radioactivity. We describe our efforts for an optimized experimental design, a careful material screening and accurate detector production handling, and a constant control of the expected results through a meticulous Monte Carlo simulation program. We show that all these actions should allow us to keep the background count rate safely below the target value of 10 Hz (i.e. ∼1 cpd accidental background) in the default fiducial volume, above an energy threshold of 0.7 MeV.

Abstract

Abstract Atmospheric neutrinos are one of the most relevant natural neutrino sources that can be exploited to infer properties about cosmic rays and neutrino oscillations. The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) experiment, a 20 kton liquid scintillator detector with excellent energy resolution is currently under construction in China. JUNO will be able to detect several atmospheric neutrinos per day given the large volume. A study on the JUNO detection and reconstruction capabilities of atmospheric $$\nu _e$$ ν e and $$\nu _\mu $$ ν μ fluxes is presented in this paper. In this study, a sample of atmospheric neutrino Monte Carlo events has been generated, starting from theoretical models, and then processed by the detector simulation. The excellent timing resolution of the 3” PMT light detection system of JUNO detector and the much higher light yield for scintillation over Cherenkov allow to measure the time structure of the scintillation light with very high precision. Since $$\nu _e$$ ν e and $$\nu _\mu $$ ν μ interactions produce a slightly different light pattern, the different time evolution of light allows to discriminate the flavor of primary neutrinos. A probabilistic unfolding method has been used, in order to infer the primary neutrino energy spectrum from the detector experimental observables. The simulated spectrum has been reconstructed between 100 MeV and 10 GeV, showing a great potential of the detector in the atmospheric low energy region.

Abstract

Abstract We present the calibration strategy for the 20 kton liquid scintillator central detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO). By utilizing a comprehensive multiple-source and multiple-positional calibration program, in combination with a novel dual calorimetry technique exploiting two independent photosensors and readout systems, we demonstrate that the JUNO central detector can achieve a better than 1% energy linearity and a 3% effective energy resolution, required by the neutrino mass ordering determination.

Abstract

Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) is a sensor that can detect low-light signals lower than the single-photon level. In order to study the properties of neutrinos at a low detection threshold and low radioactivity experimental background, a low-temperature CsI neutrino coherent scattering detector is designed to be read by the SiPM sensor. Less thermal noise of SiPM and more light yield of CsI crystals can be obtained at the working temperature of liquid nitrogen. The breakdown voltage (Vbd) and dark count rate (DCR) of SiPM at liquid nitrogen temperature are two key parameters for coherent scattering detection. In this paper, a low-temperature test is conducted on the mass-produced ON Semiconductor J-Series SiPM. We design a cryogenic system for cooling SiPM at liquid nitrogen temperature and the changes of operating voltage and dark noise from room to liquid nitrogen temperature are measured in detail. The results show that SiPM works at the liquid nitrogen temperature, and the dark count rate drops by six orders of magnitude from room temperature (120 kHz/mm2) to liquid nitrogen temperature (0.1 Hz/mm2).

14. Temperature dependence of the light yield of the LAB-based and mesitylene-based liquid scintillators

Abstract

We studied the temperature dependence of the light yield of the linear alkyl benzene (LAB)-based and mesitylene-based liquid scintillators. The light yield increases by 23% for both liquid scintillators when the temperature is lowered from $26\;^{\circ}$C to $-40\;^{\circ }$C, correcting for the temperature response of the photomultiplier tube. The measurements help to understand the energy response of the liquid scintillator detectors. Especially, the next generation reactor neutrino experiments for neutrino mass hierarchy, such as the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), require very high energy resolution. As no apparent degradation on the liquid scintillator transparency was observed, lowering the operation temperature of the detector to $\sim4\;^\circ$C will increase the photoelectron yield of the detector by 13%, combining the light yield increase of the liquid scintillator and the quantum efficiency increase of the photomultiplier tubes.

Abstract

Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) is a space-borne instrument dedicated to monitoring high-energy transients, thereinto Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) and Terrestrial Electron Beams (TEBs). We propose a TGF/TEB search algorithm, with which 147 bright TGFs and 4 TEBs are identified during an effective observation time of $\sim$ 9 months. We show that, with gamma-ray and charged particle detectors, GECAM can effectively identify and distinguish TGFs and TEBs, and measure their temporal and spectral properties in detail. Moreover, we find an interesting TEB consisting of two pulses with a separation of $\sim$ 150 ms, which is expected to originate from a lightning process near the geomagnetic footprint. We also find that the GECAM TGF’s lightning-association ratio is $\sim$ 80\% in the east Asia region using the GLD360 lightning network, which is significantly higher than previous observations.

Abstract

Gas electron multipliers (GEMs) have been widely used for particle collection and signal amplification. Because of the advantages of glass, such as high hardness, aging resistance, and dielectric strength, research into its application as a substrate material in GEM design and process has attracted extensive attention in recent years. This paper compares two commonly used glass GEM structural designs and shows that the optical transparency of the hexagonal symmetric structure is superior to that of the rectangle structure. An electric field model is developed to characterize the negative correlation between the hole diameter and the electric field strength. The structure of glass GEM is designed according to the feasibility of the process. A new process method of surface metal patterning using hole filling to form a mask is proposed, which can meet the high alignment and shaping requirements of the perfect match between the opening of metal layer and the aperture shape of the substrate. Combined with the advanced laser hole modification process, a glass GEM sample with a hole diameter of 70 μm, a spacing of 140 μm, a substrate thickness of 240 μm, and a metal thickness of 13 μm is obtained. Finally, particle trajectories, avalanche region coverage, and electron energy are discussed based on the prototype structure.

Abstract

We present the calibration strategy for the 20 kton liquid scintillator central detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO). By utilizing a comprehensive multiple-source and multiple-positional calibration program, in combination with a novel dual calorimetry technique exploiting two independent photosensors and readout systems, we demonstrate that the JUNO central detector can achieve a better than 1% energy linearity and a 3% effective energy resolution, required by the neutrino mass ordering determination.

Abstract

Each satellite of the Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM, mission) consists of 25 SiPM based gamma-ray detectors (GRDs). Although SiPM based GRD has merits of compact size and low bias-voltage, the drift of the SiPM gain with temperature is a severe problem for GRD performance. An adaptive voltage supply source was designed to automatically adjust the SiPM bias voltage to compensate the temperature effects and keep the gain stable. This approach has been proved to be effective during both the on-ground and in-flight tests. The in-flight measured variation of the SiPM gain is within 2%. To reduce the gain non-uniformity of GRDs, an iterative bias voltage adjustment approach is proposed and implemented. The gain non-uniformity is reduced from 17% to 0.6%. In this paper, the gain stabilization and consistency correction approach are presented and discussed in detail., Comment: 14 pages, 21 figures

Abstract

Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) is a pair of small satellites designed to monitor the Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs), some of them are possibly associated with Gravitational Wave Events (GWE). Each satellite includes twenty-five Gamma-Ray Detectors (GRDs) and eight Charged Particle Detectors (CPDs). GRDs are used to detect X-rays and gamma-rays to realize the observation and location of significant events such as GRBs or other X-ray Bursts (XRBs). Meanwhile, CPDs are used to help GRDs distinguish between GRBs and charged particle events (the majority are electrons) in space. In this paper, we present the electron calibration results of the CPDs, including the energy linearity, energy resolution, angular response, detection efficiency and response in high count rates. Moreover, we use the calibration spectra to verify and correct the mass model of CPD in Geant4 simulation. After the correction, the simulated spectra are in good agreement with the measurements.

Abstract

A liquid scintillator (LS) is developed for the Taishan Antineutrino Observatory (TAO), a ton-level neutrino detector to measure the reactor antineutrino spectrum with sub-percent energy resolution by adopting Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) as photosensor. To reduce the dark noise of SiPMs to an acceptable level, the LS has to work at -50 degree or lower. A customized apparatus based on a charge-coupled device (CCD) is developed to study the transparency of the liquid samples in a cryostat. We find that the water content in LS results in transparency degradation at low temperature, which can be cured by bubbling dry nitrogen to remove water. Adding 0.05% ethanol as co-solvent cures the solubility decrease problem of the fluors PPO and bis-MSB at low temperature. Finally, a Gadoliniumdoped liquid scintillator (GdLS), with 0.1% Gd by weight, 2 g/L PPO, 1 mg/L bis-MSB, and 0.05% ethanol by weight in the solvent LAB, shows good transparency at -50 degree and also good light yield., Comment: 7 pages, 7 figures

Abstract

Time projection chamber (TPC) with micropattern gaseous detectors (MPGDs) as readout has been one of the research hotspots in recent years. MPGD-based TPC has been applying to many experiments due to its high spatial and energy resolutions in 3D track measurement. A novel sampling TPC detector based on thick gaseous electron multiplier (THGEM) was developed to measure the low-energy electron tracks online from 0.1 to 50 MeV with a 100 $$\upmu \hbox {m}$$ spatial resolution in a vacuum tank. The tracks will be extrapolated to determine the hit positions on a target about 200 mm behind the TPC. A new type of self-developed THGEM detector was chosen as the TPC readout unit. The field cage has two $$50 \times 50\,\hbox {mm}^2$$ windows welded by Gold-plated tungsten wires for low-energy electrons passing through. The front-end electronics was designed with a self-developed application specific integrated circuit chip, i.e., CASA-GEM. Seven columns of readout pads were used to equidistantly sample the electron tracks in a length of 75 mm. Each column has 72 pads of $$0.56 \times 0.56 \,\hbox {mm}^2$$ and two additional strips along each column for drift time measurement. Both Geant4 and Garfield++ were chosen to simulate and optimize the detector, such as the penetration efficiency, electric field in field cage and operating gas pressure. The design and the preliminary performances of the TPC detector were verified by beam test and $$\beta $$ source test. A drift velocity of $$3.415 \pm 0.103\,\hbox {cm}/\upmu \hbox {s}$$ was measured at 125 V/cm in $$\hbox {Ar} + \hbox {iC}_4\hbox {H}_{10} ~(97:3)$$ for $$\pi ^-$$ . The electron detection efficiency is about 88% for $$\beta $$ source. And the gain of the double THGEM reached more than $$1.0 \times 10^4$$ .

Abstract

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a multi-purpose neutrino experiment, will use 20 kt liquid scintillator (LS). To achieve the physics goal of determining the neutrino mass ordering, 3$\%$ energy resolution at 1 MeV is required. This puts strict requirements on the LS light yield and the transparency. Four LS purification steps have been designed and mid-scale plants have been built at Daya Bay. To examine the performance of the purified LS and find the optimized LS composition, the purified LS was injected to the antineutrino detector 1 in the experimental hall 1 (EH1-AD1) of the Daya Bay neutrino experiment. To pump out the original gadolinium loaded LS and fill the new LS, a LS replacement system has been built in EH1 in 2017. By replacing the Gd-LS with purified water, then replacing the water with purified LS, the replacement system successfully achieved the designed goal. Subsequently, the fluorescence and the wavelength shifter were added to higher concentrations via the replacement system. The data taken at various LS compositions helped JUNO determine the final LS cocktail. Details of the design, the construction, and the operation of the replacement system are reported in this paper., Comment: 16 pages, 10 figures

Abstract

Eu2+:CeBr3 crystals were grown by vertical Bridgman growth method and slight aliovalent doping of Eu2+ in the CeBr3 crystal did not change the crystal structure. The X-ray stimulated luminescence, photoluminescence, decay kinetics and scintillation properties were investigated at room temperature. The X-ray stimulated luminescence spectra exhibited wide broad emission bands from 3.54 eV to 2.95 eV in the Eu2+:CeBr3 crystal with high content of 620 ppm of Eu2+, which were the overlap of the emission bands ascribed to 5d → 4f transition of Ce3+ and 4f65 d1 → 4f7 transition of Eu2+, respectively. When the content of Eu2+ was decreased to 70 ppm, another emission band centered at 2.29 eV was observed. The photoluminescence spectra showed the energy transfer from Ce3+ to Eu2+. This decreased the Ce3+ emission intensity but enhanced the Eu2+ emission intensity. The photoluminescence decay time of Ce3+ emission decreased from 14 ns to 10 ns when the content of Eu2+ increased from 70 ppm to 620 ppm. The decay time of the emission of 525 nm did not change with the excitation wavelength and Eu2+ content, which could be assigned to the excitons that were bound on Eu2+ related centers. The light output of the Eu:CeBr3 crystal under the excitation of 241Am radioactive source was less than 20.2% of Tl:NaI crystal.

Abstract

The Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) is designed to detect gravitational wave gamma-ray bursts and other high-energy transient sources in the energy range of 6 keV–5 MeV. It has the characteristics of all-sky field of view, high sensitivity, good positioning accuracy and wide band coverage. The mission consists of two satellites with each containing 25 gamma-ray detectors (GRD) and 8 charged particle detectors. In this paper, the energy response matrix and in-flight background of each GECAM detector are obtained by Geant4 simulation. The simulation results show that the GECAM has stronger observation ability than the Fermi/GBM in low-energy range. The average in-flight background of a single GRD is about 800 cps, and there are three characteristic peaks that can be used for on-orbit calibration.

Abstract

The Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) monitors gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) coincident with gravitational wave events over the whole sky. It also monitors other burst events, such as the high-energy radiation of fast radio bursts, various GRBs, and magnetar bursts. GECAM can measure the energy spectra, light curves, and location of all kinds of bursts. GECAM consists of two small satellites which operate in the same low earth orbit but in opposite geocentric directions. To obtain an all-sky field of view, the two satellites operate in opposite orbital phases. The GECAM payload includes two kinds of detectors: charged particle detector (CPD) and gamma-ray detector (GRD). Each GRD module consists of a LaBr3:Ce scintillator and a SiPM array, and its gamma-ray detection range is 5 keV–5 MeV. GECAM retrieves the locations of events such as GRBs through analyzing the data of the multiple GRDs on both satellites. Meanwhile, the CPD consists of a plastic scintillator and a SiPM array that detects charged particles of energies from 300 keV to 5 MeV. The GECAM distinguishes the charged particle burst events in space by jointly analyzing the GRD and CPD data. The payload electronic box (EBOX) provides in-flight trigger and burst localization. The trigger and burst location data are transmitted by a BeiDou Short Message system, which allows GECAM to guide other telescopes to do follow-up observations.

Abstract

The linear alkylbenzene has been recently used as the solvent of liquid scintillator by several neutrino experiments. The nonlinear energy response induced by the ionization quenching is critical in this kind of detectors. An empirical model proposed by Birks is commonly used to describe the quenching effect; however, recently, the parameter $$k_{\text {B}}$$ in the model is found to be particle dependent. To improve the understanding of proton quenching in LS detectors. A 14 MeV D–T compact neutron generator is deployed which can provide recoil protons with kinetic energies ranging from 0.5 to 13 MeV in LS. The parameter $$k_{\text {B}}$$ is extracted by fitting the data to the Birks’ law prediction with careful examination of systematic uncertainties. The measurement will contribute to the in-depth understanding of the energy nonlinearity in liquid scintillator detectors.

Abstract

The Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) , composed of two small satellites, is a new mission to monitor the Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) coincident with Gravitational Wave (GW) events with a FOV of 100% all-sky.Each GECAM satellite detects and localizes GRBs using 25 compact and novel Gamma-Ray Detectors (GRDs) in 6 keV-5 MeV. Each GRD module is comprised of LaBr3:Ce scintillator, SiPM array and preamplifier. A large dynamic range of GRD is achieved by the high gain and low gain channels of the preamplifier. The energy response of GRD prototype was evaluated using radioactive sources in the range of 5.9-1332.5 keV. A energy resolution of 5.3% at 662 keV was determined from the 137Cs pulse height spectra, which meets the GECAM requirement (< 8% at 662 keV). Energy to channel conversion was evaluated and a nonlinearity correction was performed to reduce the residuals (< 1.5%). Also, a Geant4-based simulated in-flight background and a measured GRD LaBr3:Ce intrinsic activity were used to evaluate the capability of in-flight calibration. These results demonstrate the design of GRD., 17 pages, 9 figures

Abstract

Previous studies showed that CsI(Na) crystals have significantly different waveforms between $$\alpha $$ and $$\gamma $$ scintillations. In this work, the light yield and pulse shape discrimination capability of CsI(Na) scintillators as a function of the temperature down to 80 K have been studied. As temperature drops, the fast component increases and the slow component decreases. By cooling the CsI(Na) crystals, the light yield of high-ionization events is enhanced significantly, while the light yield of background $$\gamma $$ events is suppressed. At 110 K, CsI(Na) crystal achieves the optimal balance between low threshold and good background rejection performance. The different responses of CsI(Na) to $$\gamma $$ and $$\alpha $$ at different temperatures are explained with self-trapped and activator luminescence centers. PSD capability of CsI(Na) reaches the peak at 110 K, which can be the optimum operating temperature for future CsI(Na)-based dark matter detector.

Abstract

A single layer THick Gaseous Electron Multiplier (THGEM) detector has been studied at E3 line of Beijing Test Beam Facility (BTBF). The responses of the detector to p and pi(+) at momenta 400 MeV/c, 500 MeV/c, 600 MeV/c and 700 MeV/c were investigated at different detector drift distances: 5 mm and 3 mm, the working gas was Neon/CH4 (9515). The p/pi(+) particles were identified through Time of Flight (TOF) method using plastic scintillation detectors. Energy spectra of different particles at various momenta were studied, and they were compared with Geant4 simulation results. Detection efficiencies for p were measured to be about 97% for 5 mm drift distance, and 91% for 3 mm. Detection efficiencies for pi(+) were lower, in the range of 84%-92%. Based on the beam test results, the THGEM detector showed performances satisfying the requirements of a Digital Hadron CALorimeters (DHCAL) in future experiments. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a 20 kton multi-purpose underground liquid scintillator detector, was proposed with the determination of the neutrino mass hierarchy as a primary physics goal. It is also capable of observing neutrinos from terrestrial and extra-terrestrial sources, including supernova burst neutrinos, diffuse supernova neutrino background, geoneutrinos, atmospheric neutrinos, solar neutrinos, as well as exotic searches such as nucleon decays, dark matter, sterile neutrinos, etc. We present the physics motivations and the anticipated performance of the JUNO detector for various proposed measurements. By detecting reactor antineutrinos from two power plants at 53-km distance, JUNO will determine the neutrino mass hierarchy at a 3-4 sigma significance with six years of running. The measurement of antineutrino spectrum will also lead to the precise determination of three out of the six oscillation parameters to an accuracy of better than 1\%. Neutrino burst from a typical core-collapse supernova at 10 kpc would lead to ~5000 inverse-beta-decay events and ~2000 all-flavor neutrino-proton elastic scattering events in JUNO. Detection of DSNB would provide valuable information on the cosmic star-formation rate and the average core-collapsed neutrino energy spectrum. Geo-neutrinos can be detected in JUNO with a rate of ~400 events per year, significantly improving the statistics of existing geoneutrino samples. The JUNO detector is sensitive to several exotic searches, e.g. proton decay via the $p\to K^++\bar\nu$ decay channel. The JUNO detector will provide a unique facility to address many outstanding crucial questions in particle and astrophysics. It holds the great potential for further advancing our quest to understanding the fundamental properties of neutrinos, one of the building blocks of our Universe., Comment: Version submitted to Journal of Physics G, with minor typo corrections. 222 Pages, 147 figures
