摘要
We have constructed and tested the upstream veto counter for the K2K long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. The upstream veto counter was constructed in such a way that two VENUS scintillators were read out via a single photomultiplier tube at each end. Timing resolutions and efficiencies of the veto counter were better than 1.0 ns and 99% in the active region of the scintillators, respectively. Energy resolutions of the veto counter are also better than 20% between the far end and the center of the scintillators. We conclude that the upstream veto counter meets requirements to reject backgrounds such as cosmic muons and beam-related muons from the upstream water Cherenkov counter and to separate beam-induced electrons from muons.
