Abstract

Properties of domestic linear alkylbenzene were subjected to a physicochemical study in order to enable use of this compound as the main solvent in large-volume liquid organic scintillators intended for neutrino experiments. New compositions of Gd-containing liquid scintillators based on linear alkylbenzene were suggested and examined.
