  2. 48. LED Pulsers as Light Sources for Calibration
    Dr Neil McCauley (University of Liverpool)
    21/07/2014, 17:05
    LED pulsers can provide nanosecond scale pulses ideal for the calibration of Hyper-Kamiokande. The latest developments in the design of a prototype driver for Hyper-Kamiokande in the UK will be presented.

  3. 22. Calibration source deployment system
    Dr Takatomi Yano (Kobe Univ.)
    21/07/2014, 17:20
    Because of the large detector, Hyper-K will need an automated calibration source deployment system. Here, the status of R&D of automated calibration source deployment system will be reported.

  4. 30. Status of the Photosensor Testing Facility
    Dr Tom Feusels (University of British Columbia)
    21/07/2014, 17:35
    I will discuss the status of the Photosensor Testing Facility (PTF) which is currently being built at TRIUMF. The PTF will measure the optical properties (acceptance, reflectivity, ...) of the PMTs under investigation for Hyper-Kamiokande using two robotic gantries.

  5. 25. SNO+ Detector: Design and Calibration
    Dr Szymon Manecki (Queen's University)
    21/07/2014, 17:50
    SNO+ is a 780-ton liquid scintillator detector that aims at measuring neutrinoless double beta decay of Te-130 using the underground facility at SNOLAB and the original SNO detector. In this talk, the SNO+ detector design and calibration hardware will be presented with an overview of the new physics goals and potential.
