Neutrino monitoring of explosions for excluding fission yield
O. Benevides Rodrigues, N. S. Bowden, R. Carr +18
Nuclear fission produces neutrinos, so the absence of a neutrino signal can be used to set a limit on the fission content of an explosion. This capability could be employed on form…
Impact of Fission Neutron Energies on Reactor Antineutrino Spectra
B. R. Littlejohn, A. Conant, D. A. Dwyer +3
Recent measurements of reactor-produced antineutrino fluxes and energy spectra are inconsistent with models based on measured thermal fission beta spectra. In this paper, we examin…
The PROSPECT Reactor Antineutrino Experiment
PROSPECT Collaboration, J. Ashenfelter, A. B. Balantekin +86
The Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment, PROSPECT, is designed to make both a precise measurement of the antineutrino spectrum from a highly-enriched uranium reac…
Performance of a segmented Li-loaded liquid scintillator detector for the PROSPECT experiment
J. Ashenfelter, A. B. Balantekin, H. R. Band +63
This paper describes the design and performance of a 50 liter, two-segment Li-loaded liquid scintillator detector that was designed and operated as prototype for the PROSPECT…
