K.Nitta, et al (K2K-SciBar group)
TL;DR
The K2K SciBar detector is a fully active, finely segmented scintillator-based device designed to enhance neutrino energy spectrum measurements and interaction studies around 1 GeV for the K2K experiment.
Contribution
Introduction of the SciBar detector as a new, fully active tracking detector for improved neutrino measurements in the K2K experiment.
Findings
SciBar was successfully constructed and operational by October 2003.
Initial performance data demonstrates effective tracking capabilities.
The detector enhances neutrino interaction studies around 1 GeV.
Abstract
A new near detector, SciBar, for the K2K long-baseline neutrino oscillation expe riment was installed to improve the measurement of neutrino energy spectrum and to study neutrino interactions in the energy region around 1 GeV. SciBar is a 'fully active' tracking detector with fine segmentation consisting of plastic scintillator bars. The detector was constructed in summer 2003 and is taking data since October 2003. The basic design and initial performance is presented.
