Neutron detection using a water Cherenkov detector with pure water and a single PMT
(Elsevier Science, 2017-12-16)
We present the performance of a novel neutron detector based on a water Cherenkov detector (WCD) employing pure water and a single photomultiplier tube (PMT). The experiments presented in this work were performed using ...
Enhancing neutron detection capabilities of a water Cherenkov detector
(Elsevier Science, 2020-03)
In this work we show the neutron detection capabilities of a water Cherenkov detector (WCD) using pure water, as well as an aqueous solution of sodium chloride as the detection volume. The experiments were performed using ...
Simulation of 500 MeV neutrons by using NaCl doped Water Cherenkov detector
(Elsevier, 2020-05)
In this work we show the capabilities of a water Cherenkov detector (WCD) to detect high energy neutrons. We present the simulation of the response of a doped WCD to 500 MeV monochromatic neutrons using Geant4. To do this, ...
Development of a web monitor for the water Cherenkov detectors array of the LAGO project
(Elsevier Science, 2019-02)
The Latin American Giant Observatory (LAGO) consists of a network of water Cherenkov detectors installed in the Andean region at various latitudes, from Sierra Negra in México 18° 59′ N to the Antarctic Peninsula 64° 14′ ...
Detección de Partículas Cósmicas Mediante la Elaboración del Protocolo del Agua de los Deshielos del Chimborazo para el Detector Cherenkov
(Escuela Superior Politécnica de Chimborazo, 2013-07-26)
The present work describes cosmic radiation, the physics of Cherenkov radiation and the ideal characteristics of the radiation detector medium, water, in order to subsequently elaborate the protocol for purification of ...
The surface detector system of the Pierre Auger Observatory
(2008)
The Pierre Auger Observatory is designed to study cosmic rays with energies greater than View the MathML source. Two sites are envisaged for the observatory, one in each hemisphere, for complete sky coverage. The southern ...
