18 Feb 2019 | | Abstract: | PROSPECT, the Precision Reactor Oscillation and SPECTrum experiment, is a
short-baseline reactor antineutrino experiment designed to provide precision
measurements of the $^{235}$U product $overline{
u}_e$ spectrum of utilizing
an optically segmented 4-ton liquid scintillator detector. PROSPECT’s
segmentation system, the optical grid, plays a central role in reconstructing
the position and energy of $overline{
u}_e$ interactions in the detector.
This paper is the technical reference for this PROSPECT subsystem, describing
its design, fabrication, quality assurance, transportation and assembly in
detail. In addition, the dimensional, optical and mechanical characterizations
of optical grid components and the assembled PROSPECT target are also
presented. The technical information and characterizations detailed here will
inform geometry-related inputs for PROSPECT physics analysis, and can guide a
variety of future particle detection development efforts, such as those using
optically reflecting materials or filament-based 3D printing. | | Source: | arXiv, 1902.6430 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
