Calibration and Simulation of the Double Chooz Photomultiplier tubes

  • 1. for the Double Chooz group at MPIK, Heidelberg and RWTH Aachen (Germany)

Description

Full text of publication follows: An extensive calibration of about 500 photomultiplier tubes was done at MPIK Heidelberg for the Double Chooz reactor neutrino experiment. The poster describes the experimental setup and gives an overview on the results focusing on charge distributions connected to transit times and after-pulse behaviour. These characteristics were also included in precise simulations of the Double Chooz detector response. (authors)
