This thesis focuses on the search for neutrinos from the solar hep reaction using the combined three phases of the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) data. The data were taken over the years 1999–2006, totalling 1,083 days of live neutrino time. The previous published SNO hep neutrino search was...

This thesis deals with the creation, calibration and performance of the camera system to be installed in the SNO+ experiment. A system of six cameras in underwater enclosures will be used to monitor the position of the acrylic vessel and its hold-down rope net during the course of the experiment....

The IceCube neutrino observatory is a gigaton Cherenkov detector located at the geographic south pole. The experiment is designed to detect neutrinos originating from the atmosphere and astrophysical objects over a huge energy range from 10 GeV to 10 PeV. Information about the interacting...

The SNO+ liquid scintillator response to low-energy electrons and its effect on the experiment’s sensitivity to a future neutrinoless double beta decay signal
DownloadFall 2016
The SNO+ experiment is set to join the international competition of experiments searching for neutrinoless double beta decay. By loading 780 t of liquid scintillator with 0.5% natural tellurium, and with its location 2 km underground at SNOLAB, SNO+ aims to have sensitivity to determining the...
