Measurements and Simulation Studies of Piezoceramics for Acoustic Particle Detection

arXiv:astro-ph/0509453 · doi:10.1142/S0217751X0603343X

Abstract

Calibration sources are an indispensable tool for all detectors. In acoustic particle detection the goal of a calibration source is to mimic neutrino signatures as expected from hadronic cascades. A simple and promising method for the emulation of neutrino signals are piezo ceramics. We will present results of measruements and simulations on these piezo ceramics.
