Abstract

Abstracts are not currently available in GtR for all funded research. This is normally because the abstract was not required at the time of proposal submission, but may be because it included sensitive information such as personal details.

Abi B (2020) Volume IV. The DUNE far detector single-phase technology in Journal of Instrumentation

 
Description This award did allow us to build a prototype for the eventual DUNE detector components. We build these components, tested using cosmic rays and a particle beam at CERN and verified their proper operation and long term stability. This allowed us to move forward with the final design iteration for the DUNE experiment.
Exploitation Route This will mainly be used by academia to design the next generation of experiments.
