Updated results from the 3-ton Gd loaded liquid scintillator target after 2 years of data taking at LNGS

We performed a 3-m(3) Cd experiment by doping (up to 0.1% in weight) two counters of the LVD experiment, at LNGS, with a Gd organic salt developed and produced as the result of a joint INFN/INR research activity. Feasibility of the experiment and performances of the Gd doped liquid scintillator (Gd-LS) have been presented. The chemical and physical properties of the Gd-LS and its performance as a neutron detector, namely neutron capture efficiency and average capture time are being monitored since the doping time in 2005. From laboratory survey we can state the stability of the trasmittance (T) at the reference wavelength (425 nm) with a C.L. of 81% and 96% respectively for the first and the second doped counter. This is the largest stable Gd-doped organic liquid scintillator target ever produced and continuously operated for a long period.
