Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Schenk evaluates new technologies and methods, such as cryogenic read-out electronics and a UV laser system, developed to optimise the performance of large liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPC). Amongst others, the author studies the uniformity of the electric field produced by a Greinacher high-voltage generator operating at cryogenic temperatures, measures the linear energy transfer (LET) of muons and the longitudinal diffusion coefficient of electrons in liquid argon. The results are obtained by analysing events induced by cosmic-ray muons and UV laser beams. The studies are carried out with ARGONTUBE, a prototype LArTPC in operation at the University of Bern, Switzerland, designed to investigate the feasibility of drift distances of up to five metres for electrons in liquid argon. Contents The ARGONTUBE detector The Greinacher high-voltage generator Linear energy transfer of muons in liquid argon UV laser methods and measurements Target Groups Lecturers and students of applied physics specialising in particle detector technologies Researchers developing liquid argon time projection chambers for rare event detection, e.g. in the field of neutrino physics or astrophysics About the Author Michael Schenk obtained his master's degree in Applied / Experimental Physics from the University of Bern, Switzerland, and is currently doing an internship at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland in the fields of collective effects and beam instabilities in particle accelerators.

This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neutrinos are an interesting type of particle that could provide insight to unanswered questions such as the imbalance of matter and antimatter in the universe. However, they're difficult, if not impossible, to detect directly. Modern particle physics experiments build detectors called Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LArTPCs) that detect the products of neutrino interactions. Due to various processes that take place within the detector, the data that comes out of these detectors ends up being distorted; various calibration techniques are necessary to ensure that the data is accurate and undistorted. All of these aspects of LArTPCs are complex on their own, let alone when they are all occurring in tandem. In this paper I will describe the basic principles behind LArTPC operation and data collection, and the calibration techniques that are carried out in the detector. I will also provide a brief comparison of various data from several of the more recent LArTPC experiments. This description of basic principles may prove useful to people who are familiarizing themselves with LArTPC experiments as part of their research endeavors.

Book excerpt: Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber detectors are ideally suited for studying neutrino interactions and probing the parameters that characterize neutrino oscillations. The ability to drift ionization particles over long distances in purified argon and to trigger on abundant scintillation light allows for excellent particle identification and triggering capability. In these proceedings the details of the ArgoNeuT test-beam project will be presented after a brief introduction to the detector technique. ArgoNeuT is a 175 liter detector exposed to Fermilab's NuMI neutrino beamline. The first neutrino interactions observed in ArgoNeuT will be presented, along with discussion of the various physics analyses to be performed on this data sample.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second workshop to discuss the development of liquid argon time projection chambers (LArTPCs) in the United States was held at Fermilab on July 8-9, 2014. The workshop was organized under the auspices of the Coordinating Panel for Advanced Detectors, a body that was initiated by the American Physical Society Division of Particles and Fields. All presentations at the workshop were made in six topical plenary sessions: i) Argon Purity and Cryogenics, ii) TPC and High Voltage, iii) Electronics, Data Acquisition and Triggering, iv) Scintillation Light Detection, v) Calibration and Test Beams, and vi) Software. This document summarizes the current efforts in each of these areas. It primarily focuses on the work in the US, but also highlights work done elsewhere in the world.

Download or read book Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber Calibration Using Cosmogenic Muons, and Measurement of Neutrino Induced Charged Kaon Production in Argon in the Charged Current Mode (MicroBooNE Experiment) written by Varuna Crishan N Meddage and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The MicroBooNE experiment at Fermilab uses the novel LArTPC technology to reconstruct neutrino interactions with liquid argon. The experiment consists of a detector having an active mass of 85 tons of liquid argon, where the operational electric field of the TPC is 0.273 kV/cm. While BNB neutrino beam at Fermilab is the main source for neutrinos for the experiment having an average energy of ~0.8 GeV, the NUMI neutrino beam at Fermilab also provides high energy neutrinos to perform different physics analyses. The MicroBooNE experiment has been in operation since october 2015. Its major physics goals include investigating into the anomalous production of electron neutrino like events as observed by MiniBooNE and LSND experiments and detail studies of neutrino-argon cross sections at lower neutrino energies. Moreover, the experiment will also serve as R&D for future LArTPC experiments like the already proposed SBN and DUNE programs. One of the major operational requirements of any LArTPC experiment including MicroBooNE is to achieve a high liquid argon purity keeping the electronegative contaminants like H2O and O2 at low concentration levels. This dissertation first describes how to perform an electron attenuation measurement using cosmogenic muons, which provides a handle over the the amount of electronegative impurities inside our detector medium. Likewise this measurement also serves as the first step towards reconstruction of particle energies as MicroBooNE must compensate for the loss of ionization electrons due to capture by electronegative contaminants. Secondly, the discussion is about how to calibrate any LArTPC detector in removing any spatial and temporal variations of the dQ/dx (charge deposited per unit length) spectrum using cosmogenic muons and then how to calculate correct energies of particle interactions with these calibrated out dQ/dx values. The translation of dQ/dx to particle energies (dE/dx - energy deposited per unit length) makes use of the stopping muons coming from neutrino interactions as the standard candle. The final discussion is about the neutrino induced charged kaon production at charged current mode in the lower neutrino energies of MicroBooNE experiment. This measurement is crucial as there is no such measurement so far on argon at the scale of neutrino energies used for MicroBooNE while already existing measurements on lighter nuclear targets are also sparse. This dissertation presents the first identified neutrino induced kaon candidates in MicroBooNE.
