Book Description
Neutrinos are an interesting type of particle that could provide insight to unanswered questions such as the imbalance of matter and antimatter in the universe. However, they're difficult, if not impossible, to detect directly. Modern particle physics experiments build detectors called Liquid Argon Time Projection Chambers (LArTPCs) that detect the products of neutrino interactions. Due to various processes that take place within the detector, the data that comes out of these detectors ends up being distorted; various calibration techniques are necessary to ensure that the data is accurate and undistorted. All of these aspects of LArTPCs are complex on their own, let alone when they are all occurring in tandem. In this paper I will describe the basic principles behind LArTPC operation and data collection, and the calibration techniques that are carried out in the detector. I will also provide a brief comparison of various data from several of the more recent LArTPC experiments. This description of basic principles may prove useful to people who are familiarizing themselves with LArTPC experiments as part of their research endeavors.

Book Description
Physics and Engineering of Radiation Detection presents an overview of the physics of radiation detection and its applications. It covers the origins and properties of different kinds of ionizing radiation, their detection and measurement, and the procedures used to protect people and the environment from their potentially harmful effects. The second edition is fully revised and provides the latest developments in detector technology and analyses software. Also, more material related to measurements in particle physics and a complete solutions manual have been added. Discusses the experimental techniques and instrumentation used in different detection systems in a very practical way without sacrificing the physics content Provides useful formulae and explains methodologies to solve problems related to radiation measurements Contains many worked-out examples and end-of-chapter problems Detailed discussions on different detection media, such as gases, liquids, liquefied gases, semiconductors, and scintillators Chapters on statistics, data analysis techniques, software for data analysis, and data acquisition systems
