Process for hot shaping flat borosilicate glass, hollow glass body made by this process and the use of same as a measuring body sleeve in a neutrino detector

摘要

In order to avoid distortions or wall thickness variations in a glass wall, especially of a hollow glass body, formed by hot shaping, the hot shaping is performed by a vacuum forming or vacuum-deep drawing process. A hollow glass body and a measuring body sleeve for a neutrino detector made by this method are also described. The measuring body sleeve does not have distortions or wall thickness variations that can interfere with measurements.
