“…Plastic scintillator is commonly manufactured in a form of strips with various cross sections and shapes or tiles with a thickness of a few millimeters and areas up to a few thousands of square meters [2]. Thanks to its unique properties, this type of scintillation materials has found wide application in high energy physics [37]. The detectors based on polystyrene stripes with 2,5diphenyloxazole (PPO) as an activator and 1,4-bis(5-phenyl-2-oxazolyl)benzene (POPOP) as a wavelength shifter are used for neutrino investigation experiments such as MINOS [38] and MINERvA [39] at Fermilab, and OPERA [40] at CERN.…”

The spectral-luminescent properties of a suspension of terbium sulfate in commercial gasoline under sonication are studied. The following emitters are identified from the luminescence spectrum: *Tb<sup>3+</sup> ions in crystals; electronically excited molecules of arenes (benzene, toluene and xylenes) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the liquid phase of the suspension. The study of sonotriboluminescence in gasoline–heptane and heptane–xylene–PAH synthetic mixtures shows for the first time that there is an effective luminescence activator in gasoline, i.e. terphenyl molecules. It has been established that these molecules have the highest luminescence yield among all sonotriboluminescence emitters found. This is provided by the transfer of the excitation energy from monocyclic arene molecules primarily excited during the sonication. In this case, the primary excitation of aromatic hydrocarbon molecules in commercial gasoline during the ultrasonic treatment of suspensions occurs under the impact of charged particles/electrons generated during electrical discharges initiated by collision and destruction of microcrystals. This process is similar to radioluminescence excitation in liquid scintillators which can be considered commercial gasoline. The formation of *Tb<sup>3+</sup> is due to separation and recombination processes of charges that populate the excited states of luminescence centers in microcrystals electrified during tribodestruction under sonication of the suspension.

New Organic Scintillators with Large Stokes Shifts

Four new scintillators were synthesized on the basis of l-phenyl-3-mesityl-2-pyrazoline in order to obtain a series of dopants with large Stokes shifts for application in ionizing particle counting. Absorption and emission spectra, light yield, quantum efficiency, decadic extinction coefficients, and absorption lengths of their toluene solutions were measured and compared to results for p-terphenyl (+ POPOP) and 3-HF, which have already been applied for particle detection.
