Description | High Energy Seminar Speaker: Nick Walsh- UC Davis Title: A Measurement of the Ar(n,p)Cl cross section below 50 MeV Host: Bob Svoboda Room: 432 Abstract: Neutrino detectors composed of liquid argon are uniquely sensitive to electron neutrinos. This is particularly interesting for the study of supernova neutrinos. One critical background to low energy electron neutrinos are muon and neutron reactions in argon that produce Cl-40. We performed the first Ar(n,p) cross section measurement from 15 to 50 MeV using the Crocker Nuclear Laboratory neutron beam at UC Davis. |
