Slow liquid scintillator (water-based or oil-based) is proposed as the detection material of a few future neutrino experiments. It can be used to distinguish between scintillation and Cherenkov light. Thus neutrino detectors with it will have the directionality and particle identification for charged particles, so that a better sensitivity is expected for low energy (MeV-scale) neutrino...

The Jinping Neutrino Experiment will perform an in-depth research on solar neutrinos, geo-neutrinos and supernova relic neutrinos. Many efforts were devoted to the R&D of the experimental proposal. The assay and selection of low radioactive stainless-steel (SST) was carried out. The U and Th concentration is less than 1e-8 g/g for selected SST samples. A wide field-of-view and...

The Enriched Xenon Observatory (EXO) is aiming to search for 0νββ decays of Xe-136 by using liquid xenon TPC detector. nEXO is the second phase of EXO with 5 tons of liquid xenon TPC, requiring ~4m2 of photo-detectors which have to be very efficient at 175nm and very radio-pure. SiPMs are ideally suitable for this application, however they have never been used in large area and detection...

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a multipurpose neutrino-oscillation experiment, with a 20 kiloton liquid scintillator detector of unprecedented 3% energy resolution (at 1 MeV) at 700-meter deep underground. There are ~18,000 20-inch photomultiplier tubes (PMTs) in the central detector with an optical coverage greater than 75%. Control of the systematics of the energy...
