Description

The opaque scintillator detector is a novel concept for a new generation of position-sensitive detectors. The main idea is to localize the light near the point of its scintillation via the scattering medium. The first and only published results were presented by the LiquidO collaboration, so further investigation is required.
Our approach suggests the usage of granular organic scintillator as a medium for the detector and an array of WLS fibers with SiPMs as a light collector. The report describes the process of calibration, the procedure of track reconstruction and the estimation of the medium's parameters. Precise measurements of spatial accuracy will be presented. Also, the Monte-Carlo simulations were processed in order to evaluate the immeasurable parameters of the setup and to study the possibilities of further improvements.
