SUMMARY:SPEAKER - Edward Callaghan - (UCB) - Optical Neutrino Detectors of the Past\, Present\, and Future
DESCRIPTION:TITLE: Optical Neutrino Detectors of the Past\, Present\, and Future \nABSTRACT: Large-volume optical detectors are a mainstay of experimental\nneutrino physics\, with several successful implementations in the past\ndecades and larger models on the horizon. Traditionally\, such detectors\nmake use of either Cherenkov radiation\, produced as a superluminal\ncharged particle stops\, or scintillation light\, produced from the\ndeexcitation of excited molecular states\, but rarely both in tandem. I\nwill describe an R&D campaign to develop technologies suitable for a\nhybrid detector\, which will exploit both Cherenkov and scintillation\nlight to implement advanced event reconstruction techniques. This\ncampaign has culminated in the Eos demonstrator project\, which will be\nlocated on the UC Berkeley campus and act as a ton-scale demonstration\nof technologies applicable for Theia\, a proposed 25+ kiloton hybrid\ndetector. I will further discuss my work measuring cosmogenic background\nproduction in SNO\, a heavy water Cherenkov detector\, and a search for\nextraterrestrial antineutrinos in SNO+\, an upgrade to SNO\, which has\ncompleted a phase of water running and is now filled with liquid\nscintillator. \nThis is a HYBRID Meeting \n\nLocation:    50A-5132\nTime:        4:00 – 5:00 PM\nTitle:       “Snowmass Report Highlights – Part 3”\n\nZOOM Information: \nJoin Zoom Meeting \n50A-5132 (Sessler Conference Room)\, https://lbnl.zoom.us/j/91782268585
