MotivationMotivation
• Absolute calibration : Laser energy can be measured by energy
meter preciously.Rayleigh scattering is well understood.

Scattering regionScattering region
• Pure N2 gas (99.9995%) is introduced.
• Flow rate is 5 – 10 litter/minutes
• Temperature and pressure is monitored
by environmental data logger.
• 1 hour after of N2 flow start, calibration is
started.

SummarySummary
• PMT absolute calibration method using Rayleigh scattering by pure gas has been developed.
• The measured Q.E.xC.E. is consistent with HPK result.
• A new chamber is now being designed and built.• Absolute calibration of the IceCube PMT is sche
duled to start in this coming February.• Watch out our report in the next collaboration me
eting.

Things to ConsiderThings to Consider
• The photon wavelength from N2 laser is 337 nm, which may be too short for the DOM pressure glass.
• On the other hand, we can MEASURE the DOM sphere absorption coefficient at 337 nm.
• The wavelength changeable laser is available but needs more $$.
