Performance of a segmented ^{6}Li-loaded liquid scintillator detector for the PROSPECT experiment

This paper describes the design and performance of a 50 liter, two-segment ^{6}Li-loaded liquid scintillator detector that was designed and operated as prototype for the PROSPECT (Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum) Experiment. The two-segment detector was constructed according to the design specifications of the experiment. It features low-mass optical separators,... Show more
