    Calibration Hardware Research and Development for SNO+ 

    Walker, Matthew (2014-06-02)
    The SNO+ experiment is a kilo-tonne scale liquid scintillator detector located at SNOLAB in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. As the successor to the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, SNO+ will use linear alkylbenzene (LAB) as the ...

    Robust Signal Extraction Methods and Monte Carlo Sensitivity Studies for the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory and SNO+ Experiments 

    Wright, Alexander (2009-09-15)
    The third and final phase of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) experiment utilized a series of 3He proportional counters called Neutral Current Detectors (NCDs) to detect the neutrons produced by the neutral current ...

    Early development of a test-bed to measure fractoluminescence in scintillators & simulation of a Na-24 source for the SNO+ experiment 

    Mony, Emilie (2014-06-24)
    This thesis consists of two parts; the first part pertains to fractoluminescence as a potential background in crystal scintillator detectors, and the second part bears on the simulation of a 24Na source to be used during ...

    The Rayleigh ratio measurement for SNO+ liquid scintillator and background studies of the internal ropes 

    Asahi, Satoko (2012-09-10)
    As a successor of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory, the SNO+ experiment is planned to start data taking in early 2013. Making use of the liquid scintillator, Linear Alkylbenzene (LAB), the SNO+ experiment aims to perform ...

    Experiments and Monte Carlo Analysis for the Optical Properties of the Scintillator in SNO+ 

    Liu, Xu (2010-09-22)
    The SNO+ experiment will be the SNO detector filled with a neodymium-loaded liquid scintillator instead of heavy water. SNO+ will be used to detect neutrinos of much lower energy. Also, SNO+ will conduct a search for ...

    Neutron Measurements and Reactor Antineutrino Search with the SNO+ Detector in the Water Phase 

    Liu, Yan
    The SNO+ experiment is a large-scale liquid scintillator neutrino experiment with a wide range of physics objectives. SNO+ has adopted a staged approach where the detector was first filled with ultra-pure water before ...

    Analysis of Cosmogenic Impurities in Tellurium and Development of Tellurium Loading for the SNO+ Experiment 

    Miller, Caleb (2016-08-29)
    For the SNO+ neutrinoless double beta decay search, various backgrounds, ranging from impurities present naturally to those produced cosmogenically, must be understood and reduced. Cosmogenic backgrounds are particularly ...

    Background Measurement Techniques and Sensitivity Studies for the SNO+ Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Search 

    Zhao, Taihe (2016-05-30)
    The control of radioactive backgrounds will be key in the search for neutrinoless double beta decay at the SNO+ experiment. Several aspects of the SNO+ back-grounds have been studied. The SNO+ tellurium purification process ...

    Quality Assurance Testing, and Sensitivity Studies for the SNO+ Experment 

    Bartlett, Daniel
    For the SNO+ experiment's search for neutrinoless double beta decay, radioactive background reduction and understanding of detector systematics are key. Indirect background measurements and energy systematics have been ...

    Search For Invisible Nucleon Decay in SNO+ With Improved Sensitivity 

    Lam, Ian
    The water phase of the SNO+ (Sudbury Neutrino Observatory) experiment has completed after the collection of ~305 days of total livetime worth of data, divided into two main sets. The effective concentration of U-238 and ...
