Abstract

The MINOS experiment is a long-baseline, neutrino-oscillation experiment. In total, 28000 m/sup 2/ of scintillator is needed for the experiment. This is almost 300 tons of finished scintillator. The solution has been the development of an extruded scintillator with a 2 mm deep grove in the upper surface for a wavelength-shifting fiber and a co-extruded TiO/sub 2/ coating as a reflector. The TiO/sub 2/ coating also allows the scintillator to be directly epoxied into panels. Production and quality control techniques are presented.
用于MINOS实验的低成本共挤反射体的研制
MINOS实验是一个长基线的中微子振荡实验。实验总共需要28000 m/sup /的闪烁体。这是将近300吨的成品闪烁体。解决方案是开发一种挤出闪烁体,其上表面有2mm深的凹槽,用于移波长光纤,并使用共挤出的TiO/sub 2/涂层作为反射器。TiO/ sub2 /涂层也允许闪烁体直接环氧化成面板。介绍了生产和质量控制技术。
