Internal calibration sources used in SNO+ have been deployed last year (2025). In order to maintain the quality of the liquid scintillator in the SNO+ Acrylic Vessel (AV), calibration sources must be cleaned and confirmed to be at the desired cleanliness level for SNO+ scintillator. A bespoke Source Cleaning Vessel (SCV) was developed for this task, recirculating a closed-loop volume of SNO+...

Radon-222 is a major background in low-background experiments such as SNO+. Radon mitigation requires quantitative strategies supported by a traceable measurement chain. This poster presents a calibration, assay, and analysis program that connects NIST-traceable HPGe gamma counting, Lucas-cell/PMT calibration, radon extraction using a physisorption and cold-trap assay system, Radon Monitor PIN...

Natural background radiation (NBR) has been a constant environmental force throughout the evolution of life, yet its contribution to normal human tissue function remains poorly understood. The REPAIR project, located 2 km underground at SNOLAB, provides a unique ultra-low radiation environment where we can investigate how biological systems respond when this longstanding environmental signal...
