Slow-fluor scintillator for low energy solar neutrinos and neutrinoless double beta decay Open
The potential for using slow-fluor liquid scintillators to study low energy solar neutrinos and neutrinoless double beta decay (0nbb) is explored through a series of simulations. The fluorescence model assumed for the primary fluor has cha…

Search for invisible modes of nucleon decay in water with the SNO+ detector Open
This paper reports results from a search for nucleon decay through invisible modes, where no visible energy is directly deposited during the decay itself, during the initial water phase of $\\mathrm{SNO}+$. However, such decays within the …

Topological and time based event classification for neutrinoless double beta decay in liquid scintillator Open
The SNO+ experiment is the successor to the SNO neutrino detector, which replaces its heavy water target with a liquid scintillator one. The primary physics goal is the search for neutrinoless double beta decay (0vββ) in 130Te, which will …

Physics and Commissioning of the SNO+ experiment Open
A brief update on the status and future prospects of the SNO+ experiment. The aims and progress of three data taking phases are reviewed with a particular emphasis on the search for neutrinoless double beta decay in 130Te. A single/multi-s…

Pulse Shape Analysis Techniques in Liquid Scintillator for the Identification and Suppression of Radioactive Backgrounds to Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Open
Spatial/temporal patterns of light produced in large scintillator experiments like SNO+ are sensitive to particle ID/count. Here we set out rules for choosing a test statistic for hypothesis testing based on timing and demonstrate two appl…
