论文摘要
从核心偏离超新星中检测中微子可能会揭示重要的过程特征以及中微子特性。超新星中微子的检测是基于液体氩的未来千禧尺度中微子探测器的主要科学驱动因素之一。在这里,我们表明,对于此类检测,q-pix中本质上的3D读数提供了相对于基于电线的读数的许多优点,例如较高的重建效率,较低的能量阈值,较低的数据速率和潜在的指向信息。
The detection of neutrinos from core-collapse supernovae may reveal important process features as well as neutrino properties. The detection of supernova neutrinos is one of the main science drivers for future kiloton-scale neutrino detectors based on liquid argon. Here we show that for such detectors the intrinsically 3D readout in Q-Pix offers numerous advantages relative to a wire-based readout, such as higher reconstruction efficiency, lower energy threshold, considerably lower data rates, and potential pointing information.
