liquid scintillator in a sentence
Examples
- The far detector is in northern Minnesota, and consists of about 500, 000 4 cm ?6 cm ?16 m cells filled with liquid scintillator.
- This team used an air shower array at Harvard University's Agassiz Astronomical Station to observe air showers created by cosmic rays using ground-based liquid scintillator detectors.
- The proposed liquid scintillator ( linear alkyl benzene ) is lighter than water, and must be held down instead, but still without blocking the view of its interior.
- A novel feature of the experiment was a liquid scintillator calorimeter, which was built in quadrants and designed to measure the energy of direct photons and other particles produced by the collisions.
- MINOS uses a solid plastic scintillator watched by phototubes, Borexino uses a liquid pseudocumene scintillator also watched by phototubes while the proposed NO?A detector will use a liquid scintillator watched by avalanche photodiodes.
- The proposed detector consists of a cylindrical steel tank containing one ton of Gd-doped liquid scintillator material and 16 8 " photomultiplier tubes separated from the scintillator material by a 25-cm thick acrylic disk.
- MINOS uses a solid plastic scintillator coupled to photomultiplier tubes, while Borexino uses a liquid pseudocumene scintillator also watched by photomultiplier tubes and the proposed NO?A detector will use liquid scintillator watched by avalanche photodiodes.
- The two light flashes associated with the positron and the neutron are coincident in time and in space, which provides a powerful method to reject single-flash ( non-antineutrino ) background events in the liquid scintillator.
- A much larger follow-up is in development in the form of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory ( JUNO ) in Kaiping, which will use an acrylic sphere filled with 20, 000 t of liquid scintillator to detect reactor antineutrinos.
- In neutrino experiments, large underground liquid scintillator detectors record the flashes of light generated from this interaction . geoneutrino measurements at two sites, as reported by the KamLAND and Borexino collaborations, have begun to place constraints on the amount of radiogenic heating in the Earth's interior.
