Abstract: LArTPCs detect charge and light from particle interactions to study neutrinos indirectly. TinyTPC, a compact LArTPC with a pixelated readout system (LArPix), aims to improve energy measurements for low-energy events by enhancing ionization charge collection. It will explore the effects of photosensitive dopants and xenon in liquid argon. Isobutylene, with ionization energy near argon's scintillation energy, efficiently converts scintillation light into a detectable ionization signal.
