论文摘要
我们报告了对大型表面探测器有用的无毒闪烁液体的研究。液体闪烁器的阵列提供了一种相当简单的工具，用于检测带动的颗粒，穿越表面并通过定义的体积跟踪其路径。沿液体闪烁容器的波长移动纤维的插入可显着改善闪烁器两端的光收集。我们已经证明，我们可以实现O（1 ns）的时序解决方案，从而允许良好的空间分辨率。带有纤维的液体闪光灯通过照片或sipm读取的液体提供了廉价的替代技术，非常适合Mathusla实验跟踪系统的需求。
We report on studies of non-toxic scintillating liquid useful for large surface detectors. Arrays of liquid scintillators offer a rather simple tool for detecting charged particles traversing a surface and tracking their path through a defined volume. Insertion of wavelength shifting fibres along the liquid scintillating containers significantly improves the light collection at the two ends of the scintillators. We have demonstrated that we can achieve timing resolution of O(1 ns) allowing good spatial resolution. Liquid scintillators with fibres read by Photo-multipliers or SiPMs provide an inexpensive alternative technology which suits well the requirement of the MATHUSLA experiment tracking system.
