BATATA:描述地下μ子探测器中观察到的穿通特性的设备,并作为AMIGA的原型运行
BATATA: A device to characterize the punch-through observed in underground muon detectors and to operate as a prototype for AMIGA
摘要:
BATATA是一种由三个X-Y平面的塑料闪烁探测器组成的示波器。这个系统的埋计数器是由一个阵列的3水切伦科夫探测器,位于一个等边三角形的顶点与200米的边补充。这个小的表面阵列是由广泛的空气簇射触发的。BATATA探测器将安装在AMIGA阵列的中心,在那里它将被用来量化μ子信号的电磁污染作为深度的函数,从而在现场验证对AMIGA μ子探测器的最佳深度所做的数值估计。BATATA还将作为一个原型,以帮助设计这些探测器。
英文摘要:
BATATA is a hodoscope comprising three X-Y planes of plastic scintillation detectors. This system of buried counters is complemented by an array of 3 water-Cherenkov detectors, located at the vertices of an equilateral triangle with 200 m sides. This small surface array is triggered by extensive air showers. The BATATA detector will be installed at the centre of the AMIGA array, where it will be used to quantify the electromagnetic contamination of the muon signal as a function of depth, and so to validate, in situ, the numerical estimates made of the optimal depth for the AMIGA muon detectors. BATATA will also serves as a prototype to aid the design of these detectors.
