3 05/31/13Teppei Katori, MIT3 1. Introduction MicroBooNE is 170 ton liquid argon cryostat with 2.5m x 2.4m x 10.6m volume of TPC (under construction, beam data is expected from 2014)  tour yesterday Prompt scintillation light from argon is faster (~ns) than electron drift (~ms), therefore detection of scintillation light allows to trigger the TPC Large array of large photo-cathode PMT is the cheapest option to achieve this purpose We took basic features of ICARUS T600 PMT system design and modified MicroBooNE cryostat MicroBooNE TPC
