Abstract
The results of investigations of scintillation properties of new SiO2- aerogel-based scintillators are presented. The aerogels are simultaneo usly saturated with Ar and 1-methylnaphthalene-based liquid scintillat ors. When luminescence is excited in the new scintillator samples by h igh-energy particles, a light yield of 10.9% of the anthracene level i s attained.
