Towards Low-Threshold, Real-Time Solar Neutrino Detectors
We discuss an alternative approach to the detection of solar neutrinos using
a coarsely segmented detector based on inverse-beta decay onto Gd or
Yb. While it is know that similar approaches, already discussed in the
literature, can in principle provide low-threshold, real-time energy
spectroscopy with intrinsic background rejection features, the concepts
presented here make this scheme possible with lower background and current
technology.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure
