English: Schematic views of the MINERvA detector. Left: front view of a single detector module. Right: side view of the complete detector showing the nuclear target, the fully active tracking region and the surrounding calorimeter regions. HCAL = Hadronic Calorimeter; ECAL = Electromagnetic Calorimeter.
A neutrino detector is a physics apparatus which is designed to study neutrinos. Because neutrinos only weakly interact with other particles of matter, neutrino detectors must be very large to detect a significant number of neutrinos. Neutrino detectors are often built underground, to isolate the detector from cosmic rays and other background ...
Main Injector Experiment for ν-A, or MINERνA, is a neutrino scattering experiment which uses the NuMI beamline at Fermilab.MINERνA seeks to measure low energy neutrino interactions both in support of neutrino oscillation experiments and also to study the strong dynamics of the nucleon and nucleus that affect these interactions.
The Scattering and Neutrino Detector (SND) at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), CERN, is an experiment built for the detection of the collider neutrinos. The primary goal of SND is to measure the p+p --> +X process and search for the feebly interacting particles. It will be operational from 2022, during the LHC-Run 3 (2022-2024).
Diagram Beta decay: beta particle is emitted from an atomic nucleus Compton scattering: scattering of a photon by a charged particle Neutrino-less double beta decay: If neutrinos are Majorana fermions (that is, their own antiparticle), Neutrino-less double beta decay is possible. Several experiments are searching for this. Pair production and ...
CONUS (COherent Neutrino nUcleus Scattering) Experiment is a research project at the commercial nuclear power plant in Brokdorf, Germany (see Figure 1). The CONUS project is sponsored by the Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik and Preussen Elektra GmbH .
The timing of the delayed capture is 200–300 microseconds after IBD initiation (≈256 μs in the Borexino detector [4]). The timing and spatial coincidence between the prompt positron annihilation and delayed neutron capture provides a clear IBD signature in neutrino detectors, allowing for discrimination from background.
