摘要： POLAR-2 is a gamma-ray burst (GRB) polarimeter that is designed to study the polarization in GRB radiation emissions, aiming to improve our knowledge of related mechanisms. POLAR-2 is expected to utilize an on#2;board polarimeter that is sensitive to soft X-rays (210 keV), called low-energy polarization detector (LPD). We have developed a new soft X-ray polarization detector prototype based on gas microchannel plates (GMCPs) and pixel chips (Topmetal). The GMCPs have bulk resistance, which prevents charging-up effects and ensures gain stability during operation. The detector is composed of low-outgassing materials and is gas-sealed using a laser welding technique, ensuring long-term stability. A modulation factor of 41.28% 0.64% is obtained for a 4.5 keV polarized X-ray beam. A residual modulation of 1.96% 0.58% at 5.9 keV is observed for the entire sensitive area.

摘要： As a unique probe, precision measurement of textit{pp} solar neutrinos is important for studying the Sun's energy mechanism, monitoring thermodynamic equilibrium, and studying neutrino oscillation in the vacuum-dominated region. For a large-scale liquid scintillator detector, one bottleneck for textit{pp} solar neutrino detection comes from pile-up events of intrinsic $^{14}$C decays. This paper presents a few approaches to discriminate textit{pp} solar neutrinos and $^{14}$C pile-up events by considering the difference in their time and spatial distributions. In this work, a Geant4-based Monte Carlo simulation is constructed. Then multivariate analysis and deep learning technology were adopted respectively to investigate the capability of $^{14}$C pile-up reduction. As a result, the BDTG model and VGG network showed good performance in discriminating textit{pp} solar neutrinos and $^{14}$C double pile-up events. hl{At the $^{14}$C concentration assumption $5 times10^{-18} g/g$,} their signal significance can achieve 10.3 and 15.6 using only one day of statistics. In this case, the signal efficiency is 51.1 % for discrimination using the BDTG model when rejecting 99.18 % $^{14}$C double pile-up events, and the signal efficiency is 42.7 % for the case using the VGG network when rejecting 99.81 % $^{14}$C double pile-up events.
