Description
A hybrid Cherenkov / scintillation experiment, that can leverage both signals in a single detector, would offer world-leading physics reach across a broad range of topics, from high-energy physics to nuclear and astrophysics. One way to realise such a detector would be the use of water-based liquid scintillator, a powerful target medium that can be tuned to meet the physics goals. In this talk we will present the current status of work to produce and characterise water-based liquid scintillator, and discuss its performance in large detectors.
