Antineutrino geophysics with liquid scintillator detectors
Detecting the antineutrinos emitted by the decay of radioactive elements in the mantle and crust could provide a direct measurement of the total abundance of uranium and thorium in the Earth. In calculating the antineutrino flux at specific sites, the local geology of the crust and the background from the world’s nuclear power reactors are important considerations. Employing a global crustal ma...
متن کاملShort-baseline neutrino oscillation waves in ultra-large liquid scintillator detectors
Powerful new multi-kiloton liquid scintillator neutrino detectors, including NOνA and LENA, will come on-line within the next decade. When these are coupled with a modest-power decay-at-rest (DAR) neutrino source at short-baseline, these detectors can decisively address the recent ambiguous signals for neutrino oscillations at high ∆m. These detectors are > 50 m long, and so with a DAR beam, th...
متن کاملThe liquid scintillator neutrino detector and LAMPF neutrino source
A search for neutrino oscillations of the type F& + V, has been conducted at the Los Alamos Meson Physics Facility using F, from muon decay at rest. Evidence for this transition has been reported previously. This paper discusses in detail the experimental setup, detector operation and neutrino source, including aspects relevant to oscillation searches in the muon decay-at-rest and pion decay in...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Gd loaded liquid Scintillator forElectron Anti - Neutrino
We report on the development and deployment of 11.3 tons of 0.1% Gd loaded liquid scintillator used in the Palo Verde reactor neutrino oscillation experiment. We discuss the chemical composition, properties and stability of the scintillator elaborating on the details of the scintillator preparation crucial for obtaining a good scintillator quality and stability.
متن کاملHow to observe B solar neutrinos in liquid scintillator detectors
We show that liquid organic scintillator detectors (e. g., KamLAND and Borexino) can measure the 8B solar neutrino flux by means of the νe charged current interaction with the 13C nuclei naturally contained in the scintillators. The neutrino events can be identified by exploiting the time and space coincidence with the subsequent decay of the produced 13N nuclei. We perform a detailed analysis ...
