大亚湾反应堆中微子实验是为了精确测量中微子混合角θ13而设计的。为了研究探测器响应的细节并最终确定探测器的设计,在北京高能物理研究所建造了一个直径为1/3的中微子探测器原型。探测器由45个8″光电倍增管观察,光电倍增管由LED光脉冲标定。探测器的能量响应,包括分辨率、线性、空间均匀性等,在探测器的不同位置用放射源133 Ba、137 Cs、60 Co和22 Na研究了该探测器的辐射特性。测试结果表明,探测器,特别是特殊设计的光学反射器,工作正常。基于Geant 4软件包的Monte Carlo模拟结果与实验数据吻合较好。
The Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment is designed to precisely measure the neutrino mixing angle θ13. In order to study the details of the detector response and finalize the detector design, a prototype neutrino detector with a scale of 1/3 in diameter is constructed at the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP), Beijing. The detector is viewed by 45 8″ photomultipliers, which are calibrated by LED light pulse. The energy response of the detector, including the resolution, linearity, spatial uniformity, etc., is studied by radioactive sources133Ba,137Cs,60Co, and22Na at various locations of the detector. The measurement shows that the detector, particularly the specially designed optical reflectors, works as expected. A Monte Carlo simulation based on the Geant4 package shows a good agreement with the experimental data.
