Testing of GdCl3 Doping in Water Cherenkov Antineutrino Detectors

Improved neutron and neutrino detection using water Cherenkov detectors loaded with gadolinium has been proposed for potential application in both large and small volume detectors. In this thesis, work performed to determine the effect on transparency resulting from use of GdCl3 in stainless steel c...
