Description
The focus of the long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments that
are currently being built is the precise measurement of the neutrino oscillation
parameters which will require good control of the systematic
uncertainties including those of the neutrino interaction models.
A novel three-dimensional projection scintillation tracker will be
the active target of the ND280 near detector upgrade for the T2K
experiment and is being considered as one of the on-axis near
detector modules for the DUNE experiment. This detector features
fine granularity and good timing resolution allowing for better
reconstruction of the final state products of neutrino interactions
on event-by-event basis including the ability to reconstruct neutrons.
Two prototypes took neutron beam data in 2019 and 2020 at the
Los Alamos National Lab (LANL) to study the detector response
to neutrons with energies from 0-800MeV. The response of the detector
was calibrated with in-situ LED calibration system and cosmic ray muons.
The details of the detector response calibration are presented.
