“…Also, the neutrino energy resolutions for LAr have been increased to 20% to reflect the ability of a LAr detector to reconstruct E ν from the energies of the outgoing muon and hadronic shower. Specifically, the value of 20%/ √ E is based on an estimate of the neutrino energy resolution in ICARUS for events with E ν < 1.25 GeV [209,212] and will be re-evaluated for LBNE energies using Monte Carlo. In addition, the uncertainty on the normalization of signal events for both WC and LAr has been increased to 5%.…”

In early 2010, the Long-Baseline Neutrino Experiment (LBNE) science collaboration initiated a study to investigate the physics potential of the experiment with a broad set of different beam, near-and far-detector configurations. Nine initial topics were identified as scientific areas that motivate construction of a long-baseline neutrino experiment with a very large far detector. We summarize the scientific justification for each topic and the estimated performance for a set of far detector reference configurations. We report also on a study of optimized beam parameters and the physics capability of proposed Near Detector configurations. This document was presented to the collaboration in fall 2010 and updated with minor modifications in early 2011.

“…Since this technology is still in its R&D phase, much less knowledge regarding its performance exists. Thus, what we present here, are essentially educated guesses [54]. We divide the signal event into samples of QE and inelastic (IE) events because energy reconstruction works quite differently for these two event classes 1 .…”

“…Thus, the shower energy resolution will be much worse than the muon resolution. Therefore, we will use two different energy resolution functions for QE and IE events [54] δE QE (E) = 0.085 + 0.05 E/GeV GeV for QE ,…”

We discuss in detail the physics reach of an experimental set-up where electron neutrinos (antineutrinos) produced in a beta-beam facility at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) are sent, over a distance of L ≃ 1300 km, to the Deep Underground Science and Engineering Laboratory (DUSEL). A 300 kt Water Cherenkov (WC) detector and a 50 kt Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) are considered as possible detector choices. We propose to use 18 Ne and 6 He as source ions for ν e andν e beams respectively. The maximum Lorentz boost factor, γ, available for these ions using the Tevatron are γ Ne = 585 and γ He = 350. This particular set-up provides the opportunity to probe the first oscillation maximum using ν e beam and the second oscillation maximum using theν e beam which helps to evade some parameter degeneracies. The resulting physics sensitivities for θ 13 , CP violation and the mass hierarchy are compared to those of a conventional superbeam from FNAL to DUSEL.

“…Such degradation would likely have negative effects for HWO beyond the simple loss of throughput, as a small fraction of scattered light could impact the contrast ratio of the coronagraph. The use of a thin MgF2 capping layer deposited by ALD partially, but not fully, mitigates this issue [13]. • Pinholes in the Al layer: Pinholes in hot-deposited Al/MgF2 have been reported [14,6].…”

In previous work we demonstrated the feasibility of a new plasma process based on electron beam-generated plasmas in SF6 environments that effectively passivates the surface of aluminum mirror samples for applications in the UV/O/IR (ultraviolet/optical/infrared) by removing the native oxide layer and producing an AlF3 passivation layer with tunable thickness. This process provides good results in terms of far ultraviolet reflectivity, environmental stability, uniformity, polarization aberration, surface roughness, and does not require elevated substrate temperatures or ultra-high vacuum conditions. In this communication we show that, in addition to these characteristics, Al mirrors can be passivated faster with NF3 than with SF6 over a wide range of process parameters without the loss of optical performance independent of the working-gas choice adopted for the plasma.
