摘要:

NOvA合作将8.8 kt(2.72 M gal)的液体闪烁体作为活性探测器介质混合并交付给其近距离和远距离探测器。该闪烁体的成分是专门开发的,以满足NOvA的性能要求。制定了一套严格的质量控制程序,以验证来料组件和混合闪烁体是否符合这些要求。闪烁体在Hammond,IN市售。使用清洁至食品级的专用不锈钢罐车将闪烁体运输至NOvA检测器。

英文摘要:

The NOvA collaboration blended and delivered 8.8 kt (2.72M gal) of liquid scintillator as the active detector medium to its near and far detectors. The composition of this scintillator was specifically developed to satisfy NOvA's performance requirements. A rigorous set of quality control procedures was put in place to verify that the incoming components and the blended scintillator met these requirements. The scintillator was blended commercially in Hammond, IN. The scintillator was shipped to the NOvA detectors using dedicated stainless steel tanker trailers cleaned to food grade.
