Description
The Time Projection Chambers with noble gases are a powerful neutrino detector. The
light emitted by the scintillation process is mostly invisible to the most common light
detection systems. The vastly used solution to this problem is to use wavelength shifters
to downshift the high energy scintillation photons into less energetic ones.
Some Wavelength shifters’ characteristics are not yet precisely measured. This work
shows the most important results from the measurement of one of those characteristics, the integrated emission spectra. The excitement light range was chosen to include
all noble gases emission peaks, and was achieved using synchrotron light
provided in collaboration with Toroidal Grating Monochromator line (TGM) team at
Brazilian Synchrotron Light Laboratory (LNLS).
