ICARUS T600 is the far detector of the Short Baseline Neutrino program at Fermilab(USA), which foresees three Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers along the Booster Neutrino Beam line to search for LSND-like sterile neutrino signal. The T600 detector underwent a significant overhauling process at CERN, introducing new technological developments while maintaining the already achieved performances. The realization of a new liquid argon scintillation light detection system is a primary task of the detector overhaul. As the detector will be subject to a huge flux of cosmic rays, the light detection system should allow the 3D reconstruction of events contributing to the identification of neutrino interactions in the beam spill gate. The design and implementationof the new scintillation light detection system of ICARUS T600 is described.

Charge and Light Production in the Charge Readout System of a Dual Phase LAr TPC
对于未来的中微子振荡实验DUNE,预计每个基准质量为10千吨的液氩时间投影室。双相概念是所考虑的两种实现方式之一,其中,由液体中的电离产生的电子被提取到液体上方的气体区域,在该气体区域中,电子被放大。为了放大,将使用大型电子倍增器。该技术在各种原型中进行了测试,最近使用的是3 x 1 x 1 m $^3$大型装置。目前正在建造一个更大的6 x 6 x 6 m $^3$原型,并将于2019年开始运营。进行了密集的研发计划,重点是实现至少20的有效增益。在这里首次提出的模拟研究中,不仅考虑了电子信号,而且还研究了离子回流和二次闪烁光的预期产生,因为后者可能限制探测器触发低能量无束物理的能力。发现离子回流和光产额可以预期非常大。有效增益的结果显示出与实验数据的差异,无论是在大小和形状的增益曲线。基于文献研究,认为光子反馈对填充纯稀有气体的探测器的增益有贡献,特别是在纯氩的情况下。
