During the commissioning of RPC detector systems at the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment, calibration algorithms were developed and tuned, in order to evaluate and optimize the performance of the RPC detectors. Based on a description of the hardware structure of the RPC detector systems, this paper introduces the algorithms used for detector calibration, including trigger rate, efficiency, noise rate, purity and muon flux.
Abstract. We report the measurements of the densities of linear alkylbenzene at three temperatures over 4 to 23• C with pressures up to 10 MPa. The measurements have been analysed to yield the isobaric thermal expansion coefficients and, so far for the first time, isothermal compressibilities of linear alkylbenzene. Relevance of results for current generation (i.e. Daya Bay) and next generation (i.e. JUNO) large liquid scintillator neutrino detectors are discussed.PACS numbers: 65.20.Jk, 29.40.Mc, 14.60.Pq Densities, isobaric thermal expansion coefficients and isothermal compressibilities of linear alkylbenzene2
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
