Large-scale WLS surfaces and SiPMs tested

This task focuses on innovation in scintillation light readout in large liquid argon detectors, covering the development of light collection readout methods: photo-sensors and electronics, new wavelength shifting methods and light calibration. The goals of this task are the characterisation of the new photon detection methods, calibration devices and readout electronics in dedicated test-stands; the implementation and characterisation of a more efficient light collection system in large liquid-argon detectors (based on Xe doping and WLS coated reflective foils); the dissemination of R&D results and light-collection performance. This document reports on tests performed using facilities at INFN-MiB, CIEMAT and the 50 l facility at the CERN Neutrino Platform.
