Résumé : | In the upcoming IceCube-Gen2 extension, the newly developed optical modules will include4–inch PMTs. For this purpose, the manufacturers Hamamatsu and North Night Vision Technologyhave developed new PMT models to meet the requirements of the IceCube-Gen2 science case.The specifications include strict requirements on temporal resolution, detection efficiency, anddark noise. We summarize the efforts to measure these performance characteristics and show thatboth PMT models meet the performance specifications set by IceCube-Gen2. Prototype opticalmodules based on both PMT models will be deployed with the IceCube Upgrade in order to testthem in situ and help decide on a vendor for the Gen2 extension. |
