Liquid noble gas detectors for low energy particle physics

2013

We review the current status of liquid noble gas radiation detectors with energy threshold in the keV range, which are of interest for direct dark matter searches, measurement of coherent neutrino scattering and other low energy particle physics experiments. Emphasis is given to the operation principles and the most important instrumentation aspects of these detectors, principally of those operated in the double-phase mode. Recent technological advances and relevant developments in photon detection and charge readout are discussed in the context of their applicability to those experiments.

“…The measurement of the arrival times of single photoelectrons is affected by the transittime spread (TTS) of the photodetectors, a number which can be different by orders of magnitude depending on the detector type. The default TTS of 0.1 ns (σ ) can be achieved with large area picosecond photodetectors (LAPPDs) [53][54][55][56] and possibly hybrid photodetectors (HPDs) [57]; even significantly lower TTS numbers are realistic with the LAPPD [54][55][56].…”

Measuring directionality in double-beta decay and neutrino interactions with kiloton-scale scintillation detectors

et al. 2014

Large liquid-scintillator-based detectors have proven to be exceptionally effective for low energy neutrino measurements due to their good energy resolution and scalability to large volumes. The addition of directional information using Cherenkov light and fast timing would enhance the scientific reach of these detectors, especially for searches for neutrino-less double-beta decay. In this paper, we develop a technique for extracting particle direction using the difference in arrival times for Cherenkov and scintillation light, and evaluate several detector advances in timing, photodetector spectral response, and scintillator emission spectra that could be used to make direction reconstruction a reality in a kiloton-scale detector.
