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 ...
Pulse fitting for event localization in high purity germanium point contact detectors

Vasundhara, Vasundhara

P-type Point Contact (PPC) detectors are used in rare-event searches, such as neutrinoless double-beta decay and dark matter searches, due to their low radioactive backgrounds and low energy thresholds. The Majorana ...
