“…Both properties (the temperature and Gibbs free energy) are directly related to the energy deposition threshold for bubble nucleation. An examination of bubble size and detector sensitivity for the SLAC 1m Hybrid Chamber, which was partially filled with hydrogen, is reproduced from a cited reference in 2 [15]. Offline analysis was typically done by human observers who identified relevant events by eye, and processed analysis with the earliest computers.…”

Neutrino cross sections are a critical ingredient in experiments that depend on neutrino scattering to reconstruct event kinematics and infer neutrino characteristics, like NOvA and T2K. An opportunity exists to reduce the 5-10% broad uncertainty on neutrino cross sections by producing more measurements of neutrino scattering from light nuclear targets at the relevant energies. Bubble chambers with light nuclear targets would be ideal for these measurements but the most recent device designed for use with an accelerator neutrino source is at least fifty years old. A new bubble chamber with light nuclear targets could be designed by observing how the technology has progressed for use in dark matter experiments and producing smaller modular devices that use more efficient cooling systems. A smaller modular device could also be designed for deployment to all functioning neutrino beams, but an investigation of the proper operating characteristics is necessary to adapt newer detectors to the structure of contemporary neutrino beams.

“…Its main advantages are its short memory time, which can be tuned to permit operation in intense beams of 10 6 particles per second [Eck77], and the ease with which it can be triggered. Only relatively recently have rapidly recycling, bubble chambers been developed which can be incorporated into hybrid spectrometers [BaI77] and triggered. 1 The streamer chamber also benefits from its low mass which makes multiple scattering and energy loss negligible for most ionizing particles.…”
