Progress on HERON: A Real-time Detector for P-P Solar Neutrinos
نویسندگان
چکیده
The HERON project is an R&D effort to create a detector suitable for real-time, high rate measurement of neutrinos from both the p-p and 7Be reactions in the Sun using superfluid helium as the target medium. Progress on studies of particle detection processes in superfluid, on development of sensors, on backgrounds, and on event energy and position measurement which are related to this goal are discussed.

GENIUS: the first real-time detector for solar pp-neutrinos?
The GENIUS project is a proposal for a large supersensitive Germanium detector system for WIMP and double beta decay searches with a much increased sensitivity relative to existing and other future experiments. In this paper, the possibility to detect low energy solar neutrinos with GENIUS in real-time through elastic neutrino-electron scattering is studied.
متن کاملFuture Solar Neutrino Projects
In the program to determine the intrinsic properties of the neutrinos and their role in physics and astrophysics, solar neutrino experiments are playing a fundamental part. The “first” and “second” generation detectors in the field have been enormously successful and promise to provide still greater contributions. The challenge to create a “third generation” of solar neutrino detectors arises p...

The measurement of the flux of beryllium neutrinos with the accuracy of about 10% and CNO neutrinos with the accuracy 20-30% will enable to find the flux of pp-neutrinos in the source with the accuracy better than 1% using the luminosity constraint. The future experiments on νe − scattering will enable to measure with very good accuracy the flux of beryllium and pp-neutrinos on the Earth. The r...

In a future study of solar neutrinos a special emphasis should be given to the measurement of the fluxes of neutrinos generated in CNO cycle, because this is a direct way to measure with record uncertainty – less than 1% the contribution to the solar luminosity of a pp-chain of reactions. Combined with the luminosity constraint method suggested by M. Spiro and D. Vignaud this will put the found...
متن کاملSpectroscopy of double-beta and inverse-beta decays from 100Mo for neutrinos.
Spectroscopic studies of two beta rays from 100Mo are shown to be of potential interest for investigating both the Majorana nu mass by neutrinoless double beta decay (0nubetabeta) and low energy solar nu's by inverse beta decay. With a multiton 100Mo detector, coincidence studies of correlated betabeta from 0nubetabeta, together with the large Q value ( Q(betabeta)), permit identification of th...
