AbstraktAbstract

Neutrino research is relatively new and still not well-known part of physics. Therefore, many neutrino detectors have been developed to investigate neutrino properties. This paper describes present status of highly-segmented scintillating detector S3, which was developed as a common effort of IEAP CTU in Prague and JINR, Dubna. Since detector material meets strict safety rules of Nuclear Power Plant, it can be installed in the close vicinity from the reactor, which is the most intense man-controlled source of antineutrinos. Since detector can be installed near the reactor (~ 10 m), it can be used for study of neutrino properties with higher efficiency, investigation of neutrino oscillations on short baselines, verification of sterile neutrino hypothesis and online measurement of the reactor power and fuel composition. Therefore, detector can be of great importance to fundamental and applied research.
