TL;DR: A 30 kiloton tracking calorimeter with liquid scintillator filled PVC extrusion modules is proposed in the NOvA proposal as mentioned in this paper, with alternating horizontal and vertical rectangular cells.
Abstract: This is an updated version of the NOvA proposal The detector is a 30 kiloton tracking calorimeter, 157 m by 157 m by 132 m long, with alternating horizontal and vertical rectangular cells of liquid scintillator contained in PVC extrusion modules Light from each 157 m long cell of liquid scintillator filled PVC is collected by a wavelength shifting fiber and routed to an avalanche photodiode pixel The reach of NOvA for sin^2(2_theta_13) and related topics is increased relative to earlier versions of the proposal with the assumption of increased protons available from the Fermilab Main Injector following the end of Tevatron Collider operations in 2009

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the horizontal (|cos(theta)sub z})| 1.8 GeV in Soudan 2 to be 4.30 x 10.30 × 10 cm and set a limit on the flux of neutrinos from active galactic nuclei.
