The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a multi-purpose experiment designed to elucidate fundamental neutrino properties, study neutrinos with astrophysical or terrestrial origins, and search for rare processes beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. Its central detector is a 20 kton liquid scintillator (LS) located 650 m underground in Guangdong, China. To achieve its...
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a multi-purpose neutrino experiment with a 20 kton Liquid Scintillator central detector. The primary goal of JUNO is determination of the neutrino mass ordering by measuring the reactor antineutrinos. There are 20012 20-inch PMTs for JUNO, 17612 for the central detector and 2400 for the outer water-Cherenkov detector. To achieve the...
A 20 kton liquid scintillator (LS) detector was designed in the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) for multiple physics purposes. In order to determine the neutrino mass ordering, JUNO needs an excellent energy resolution of 3% /√E(MeV) and an accuracy of the energy scale at 1% level or better. On one hand, a comprehensive calibration system is designed, deploying multiple...
Large liquid argon time projection chambers (LAr-TPCs) are playing an increasingly important role in neutrino physics, with several past and present accelerator neutrino experiments choosing this technology for their designs. The upcoming DUNE experiment will supersede all its predecessors both in size and physics reach. The calibration of the DUNE detector will be an essential component of...
DUNE is a long-baseline accelerator experiment in construction at Fermilab and SURF (South Dakota) aiming to probe CP violation in the neutrino sector and to identify the neutrino mass hierarchy.
The DUNE physics reach on the observation of supernova neutrino bursts and proton decay is remarkably enhanced by the DUNE Photon Detection System (PDS) and strictly related to the Photon Detection...
