Abstract: A study has been performed in order to find the optimal solution for the magnetic shielding of the 10in. photomultipliers which will be used in the Double Chooz neutrino experiment under a very low magnetic field (less than 2G). The results obtained with analytical and numerical calculations are compared with measurements made using test prototypes of several magnetic materials, with different dimensions and from different manufacturers. An exhaustive analysis of the magnetic materials was needed to understand the observed disagreement between calculations and test results obtained at low field values. [Copyright &y& Elsevier] |
