Testing of Cryogenic Photomultiplier Tubes for the MicroBooNE Experiment
The MicroBooNE detector, to be located on axis in the Booster Neutrino Beamline (BNB) at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab), consists of two main components: a large liquid argon time projection chamber (LArTPC), and a light collection system. Thirty 8inch diameter Hamamatsu R5912-02mod cryogenic photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) will detect the scintillation light generated in the...
متن کاملPhotomultiplier Tubes
Light which enters a photomultiplier tube is detected and produces an output signal through the following processes. (1) Light passes through the input window. (2) Light excites the electrons in the photocathode so that photoelectrons are emitted into the vacuum (external photoelectric effect). (3) Photoelectrons are accelerated and focused by the focusing electrode onto the first dynode where ...

including basic and performance. For example, section 4.1 shows spectral response characteristics of typical photocathodes and also gives the definition of photocathode sensitivity and its measurement procedure. Section 4.2 explains dynode types, structures and typical characteristics. Section 4.3 describes various performance characteristics such as time response, operating stability, sensitiv...

oscillation search (sin2(2θ) and Δm2). Δm2 is the difference in squares of the mass states of the neutrinos (Δm12 = m2 m 2 1). If the observed oscillations only occur between neutrinos in the Standard Model a summation law of the Δm2 is valid (Δm13 = Δm 2 12 + Δm 2 23). The observed oscillations do not follow this summation law. This implies one of the results is incorrect or there exists physi...
