SBND

The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND)

The Short-Baseline Near Detector (SBND) with an active mass of 112 tons will be one of the detectors in the SBN program utilising the Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) technology. SBND is located only 110 m away from the Booster Neutrino Beam (BNB) source, and will provide high statistics for the measurements of the un-oscillated content of the neutrino beam, studies of neutrino-argon interactions and sterile neutrinos. The detector is currently being assembled and is anticipated to begin operation in 2023. In Edinburgh, our group is working on the light simulation and photo-detector developments and BSM searches in SBND. For further information, please contact Dr Andrzej Szelc (a.szelc [at] ed.ac.uk).
