Abstract
Eos is an R&D testbed for hybrid detector technologies, featuring state-of-the-art sub-ns photosensors, the first implementation of dichroicons in a large-scale demonstrator, and the deployment of novel detection media such as water-based liquid scintillator (WbLS). By separating Cherenkov and scintillation light, Eos leverages the benefits of both to explore the potential of next-generation neutrino technologies. An extensive radioactive source calibration program enables the characterization of position, direction, and energy reconstruction performance of a variety of target materials. Furthermore, Eos will provide data to refine optical models and inform the development and simulation of future neutrino experiments. This paper describes the as-built design and data-taking plan of Eos, outlining its scientific motivations and role in the development of future detector technologies.
