A new muon fitter for the SNO+ experiment — •Johann Dittmer, Mikko Meyer, and Kai Zuber for the SNOplus collaboration — TU Dresden, Institut für Kern– und Teilchenphysik
The SNO+ experiment is a liquid scintillator based neutrino detector looking for the neutrinoless double beta decay of 130Te. The experiment is the successor of the Nobel Prize winning SNO experiment and is located at the same location as SNO (at SNOLAB with 2 km rock overburden).
The goal of track reconstruction algorithms is to identify sub–volumes, where muon–induced nuclides (8He, 9Li, 11C etc.) are produced, and – connected to that – to reduce the detector dead time. Both goals are important for the analysis of solar pep– and CNO–neutrinos. In addition, a precise knowledge of the muon track may also take part in other analyses.
In this talk, an algorithm to reconstruct the muon track is presented. First results of the quantitative analysis will be presented as well.
