Neutron Reconstruction via Blips in Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers

Bryce Littlejohn, Linyan Wan, Miguel Hernandez Morquecho, Paola Sala

Isolated MeV-scale blips from neutron inelastic scattering enable identification and reconstruction of neutrons in sub-GeV neutrino interactions inside liquid argon time projection chambers.

The bundle contains the canonical record plus signed events. A mirror can host it anywhere and recompute the same current state with the deterministic merge algorithm.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Leveraging isolated, MeV-scale energy deposits, or blips, from neutron inelastic scattering, and using realistic blip response from published experimental results, we demonstrate the capability to identify neutrons and to reconstruct the direction and energy of the final-state neutron system in sub-GeV neutrino interactions.

C2weakest assumption

The simulation accurately models blip production, isolation, and detector response in real LArTPC conditions without significant unaccounted backgrounds or reconstruction inefficiencies.

C3one line summary

Simulation-based proof-of-concept demonstrates neutron identification and reconstruction of direction and energy using blips from inelastic scattering in LArTPCs.
