ANNIE

The Accelerator Neutrino Neutron Interaction Experiment (ANNIE)

We are part of the the ANNIE experiment at Fermilab which is  a Water Cherenkov detector. ANNIE aims to measured neutron yield of atmospheric neutrino interactions in gadolinium-doped water and to act as testbed for a new type of photon detector (The LAPPD) which has precision timing capabilities and promises to transform the field of single photon detection. On ANNIE we are focussed on simulation studies of the LAPPD response and the application of machine learning techniques to event reconstruction.
