Description
The RED-100 is a two-phase xenon emission detector built to study the recently discovered rare process of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering CEvNS. The detector contains ~200 kg of liquid xenon inside a cryostat, with ~100 kg in fiducial volume. The detector is sensitive to the very small level of ionization, down to single ionization electrons. First laboratory tests of the RED-100 detector has been carried out. The results are presented.
The detector is planned to be installed at the Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant.
