Search for neutrino oscillations on a long base-line at the CHOOZ nuclear power station
This final article about the CHOOZ experiment presents a complete description of the νe source and detector, the calibration methods and stability checks, the event reconstruction procedures and the Monte Carlo simulation. The data analysis, systematic effects and the methods used to reach our conclusions are fully discussed. Some new remarks are presented on the deduction of the confidence lim...
متن کاملSearch for neutrino oscillations at the palo verde nuclear reactors
We report on the initial results from a measurement of the antineutrino flux and spectrum at a distance of about 800 m from the three reactors of the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station using a segmented gadolinium-loaded scintillation detector. We find that the antineutrino flux agrees with that predicted in the absence of oscillations excluding at 90% C.L. nu;(e)-nu;(x) oscillations with De...
متن کاملFrom Double Chooz to Triple Chooz — Neutrino Physics at the Chooz Reactor Complex
We discuss the potential of the proposed Double Chooz reactor experiment to measure the neutrino mixing angle sin 2θ13. We especially consider systematical uncertainties and their partial cancellation in a near and far detector operation, and we discuss implications of a delayed near detector startup. Furthermore, we introduce Triple Chooz, which is a possible upgrade scenario assuming a second...

متن کاملChooz and Perry: New Experiments for Long Baseline Reactor Neutrino Oscillations
We discuss the Chooz experiment, a long baseline search for neutrino vacuum oscillations, which will utilize a gadolinium-loaded liquid scintillation detector one km from a large nuclear power station. The 300-mwe underground site of the detector reduces cosmic ray muons, the main source of background in this type of experiment, by a factor of 300, thereby allowing clean detection of antineutri...
