Performance of a Ton-scale Water-based Liquid Scintillator Detector
Abstract
This study reports the performance and light yield of 1% concentration water-based liquid scintillator (WbLS) deployed in a 1000-liter detector. A light yield of 9915 photons per MeV is determined by comparing data with simulation. This result aligns with our previous light yield determination using smaller detectors, thus establishing a solid foundation for the ongoing development and deployment of WbLS in larger-scale detectors. The feasibility of in situ preparation and the stability of light yield in WbLS are demonstrated, reinforcing its suitability for long-term experimental endeavors.
