Design and time properties of the Central Neutron Detector for CLAS12

Résumé

The primary goal of the experiments using the CLAS12 detector at energies up to 12 GeV, at the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility at the Jefferson Laboratory, is the study of the structure of the nucleons in terms of the Generalized Parton Distributions. One of the necessary steps to complete our understanding in this field is the measure of the Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering on the neutron (n-DVCS) and so, to this aim, we are constructing a scintillator detector dedicated to the detection for the recoil neutron to be placed in the Central Detector system of the CLAS12 apparatus. To match the requirements of the experiment the Central Neutron Detector must provide good time properties in order to ensure good photon-rejection capabilities. In this communication we will report on the study and R&D of the Central Neutron Detector for CLAS12. In particular, we will describe the results on the tests that lead us to the final choice of the detector’s design and we will discuss the outcomes of the study on the time resolution properties of the prototype.
