An Analysis of the 3-He Proportional Counter Data from the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory Using Pulse Shape Discrimination
Martin, Ryan (2009-09-22)This thesis presents an independent analysis of the data from 3-He-filled proportional counters from the third phase of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) data. These counters were deployed in SNO's heavy water to ... -
Characterization of a carbon radon filter and Radon detection
Golightly, John (2008-09-04)Carbon filled columns were built and tested as prototype radon filters. The length of time taken for a pulse of radon to travel from one end of the filter to the other was measured using nitrogen, and then air as the ... -
The energy calibration for the solar neutrino analysis of all three phases of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
MacLellan, Ryan (2009-09-26)This work presents the calibration of the energy response of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO). The development of the energy response processor RSP and its use in setting the energy scale of SNO and reconstructing ... -
Low energy solar neutrino analysis of the salt phase of the Sudbury neutrino observatory
Kos, Mark Szymon (2008-01-02)The neutrino fluxes from the neutral current (NC), charged current (CC), and elastic scattering (ES) neutrino interactions in the salt phase of SNO have been extracted. The signals were extracted above an energy threshold ...
