Description

Gadolinium (Gd) loaded liquid scintillator used to detect neutrino. For a neutrino experiment to be successful, it is very important for the Gd-loased LAB-based liquid scintillator to know several parameters. Also, feasiblity study on a new type of liquid scintillator based on water-based scintillator have been performed. In order to make a liquid scintillator based on water, a surfactant that contains lypophilic and hydrophilic groups is used. We report the characteristics and the possibility of liquid scintillator based on water.
