The ICARUS collaboration employed the 760-ton T600 detector in a successful 3-year physics run at underground LNGS laboratory, performing sensitive search for LSND-like anomalous νe appearance CERN Neutrino to Gran Sasso beam, which contributed constraints on allowed neutrino oscillation parameters narrow region around 1 eV2. After significant overhaul CERN, has been installed Fermilab. In 2020 cryogenic commissioning began with cool down, liquid argon filling and recirculation. then started...
Abstract The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next generation experiment aimed to study neutrino oscillation. Its long-baseline configuration will exploit Near Detector (ND) and Far (FD) located at distance of ∼1300 km. FD consist four Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LAr TPC) modules. A Photon Detection System (PDS) be used detect the scintillation light produced inside detector after interactions. PDS based on collectors coupled Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs)....
The ICARUS-T600 Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber is operating at Fermilab shallow depth and thus exposed to a high flux of cosmic rays that can fake neutrino interactions. A ray tagging (CRT) system ($\sim$1100 m$^2$), surrounding the cryostat with two layers fiber embedded plastic scintillators, was developed mitigate induced background. Using nanosecond-level timing information, CRT distinguish incoming from outgoing particles interactions in TPC. In this paper an overview system, its...
Abstract Burst effect of Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) at cryogenic temperatures have been discovered few years ago looking the dark count rate SiPMs liquid nitrogen temperatures. Bursts are trains single signals that happen randomly and clearly distinguishable from primary DCR correlated noise because their particular time distribution. In this article we describe a detailed study related to both external causes triggers bursts phenomenon, internal sensor, produces signals. We burst...
