Simulation study of neutrino nucleus cross section measurement in a segmented detector at a spallation neutron source

Knowledge of ν_e-Fe/Pb differential cross sections for ν_e energy below several tens of MeV scale is believed to be crucial in understanding supernova physics. In a segmented detector at a spallation neutron source, ν_e energy reconstructed from the electron range measurement is strongly affected because both multiple scattering and electromagnetic showers occur along the electron passage in target materials. In order to estimate these effects, a simulation study has been performed with a cube block model assuming perfect tracking precision. The energy spectrum distortion is observed to be proportional to the atomic number of the target material. Feasibility of unfolding the distorted ν_e energy spectrum is studied for both Fe and Pb. An evaluation of the statistical accuracy attainable is therefore provided for a segmented detector.

铽离子-镧系金属结合标签的荧光探针的改进

镧系金属因其具有较窄的发射光谱带,较大的斯托克斯位移以及毫秒级的荧光寿命,而被广泛应用于荧光检测中,其中Tb~(3+)、Eu~(3+)最为常用.镧系金属结合标签(Lanthanide Binding Tag,LBT)可以与蛋白质融合表达,并且一般不会影响蛋白的结构和功能,这些特点使LBT被广泛应用于蛋白质结构与功能研究中.LBT能够特异性地结合镧系金属离子,并利用LBT上色氨酸的吲哚环作为"天线"吸收外部能量,再将能量传递给镧系金属离子,进而激发镧系金属离子产生荧光.该文以经典模式蛋白泛素(Ubiquitin,Ub)作为媒介,将LBT引入到Ub的碳端,采用定点突变的方法增加LBT上吲哚环的数量,观察Ub-LBT[结合铽离子(Tb~(3+))]荧光量子产率的变化.结果表明在LBT结构中增加吲哚环的数量能够提高LBT(结合Tb~(3+))的荧光量子产率.     

Hunting potassium geoneutrinos with liquid scintillator Cherenkov neutrino detectors

The research on geoneutrinos is a new interdisciplinary subject involving particle experiments and geo-science.Potassium-40(40K)decays contribute roughly to 1/3 of the radiogenic heat of the Earth,which is not yet accounted for by experimental observation.Solar neutrino experiments with liquid scintillators have observed uranium and thorium geoneutrinos and are the most promising experiments with regard to low-background neutrino detection.In this study,we present the new concept of using liquid-scintillator Cherenkov detectors to detect the neutrino-electron elastic scattering process of 40K geoneutrinos.Liquid-scintillator Cherenkov detectors using a slow liquid scintillator achieve this goal with both energy and direction measurements for charged particles.Given the directionality,we can significantly suppress the dominant intrinsic background originating from solar neutrinos in conventional liquid-scintillator detectors.We simulated the solar-and geo-neutrino scatterings in the slow liquid scintillator detector,and implemented energy and directional reconstructions for the recoiling electrons.We found that 40K geoneutrinos can be detected with three-standard-deviation accuracy in a kiloton-scale detector.
