The K2K SciBar Detector
نویسندگان
چکیده
A new near detector, SciBar, for the K2K long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment was installed to improve the measurement of neutrino energy spectrum and to study neutrino interactions in the energy region around 1 GeV. SciBar is a ’fully active’ tracking detector with fine segmentation consisting of plastic scintillator bars. The detector was constructed in summer 2003 and is taking data since October 2003. The basic design and initial performance is presented.

متن کاملCharged current pi-plus production from the K2K Scibar
Single charged pion production in charged-current muon neutrino interactions with carbon is studied using data collected in the K2K long-baseline neutrino experiment. Our measurement of the cross section relative to that of charged-current quasi-elastic is consistent with results of a previous experiment and our prediction based on the Rein and Sehgal model.
متن کامل1 Near Muon Range Detector for the K 2 K Experiment - Construction and Performance -
A muon range detector (MRD) has been constructed as a near detector for the KEK-to-Kamioka long-baseline neutrino experiment (K2K). It monitors the neutrino beam properties at the near site by measuring the energy, angle and production point of muons produced by charged-current neutrino interaction. The detector has been working stably since the start of the K2K experiment.
متن کاملA note on the neutrino mass implications of the K2K experiment
The K2K experiment has presented the first results on the observation of νμ. They show a depletion compared to the expectations and are consistent with neutrino oscillations with a mass-splitting in the range favoured by the Super-Kamiokande atmospheric neutrino measurements. Here we examine the extent by which the range of ∆m obtained from the K2K measurements can vary due to the uncertainties...
