Reference worldwide model for antineutrinos from reactors

Marica Baldoncini, Ivan Callegari, Giovanni Fiorentini +4

Antineutrinos produced at nuclear reactors constitute a severe source of background for the detection of geoneutrinos, which bring to the Earth's surface information about natural…

Cosmic and Galactic Neutrino Backgrounds from Thermonuclear Sources

Cristiano Porciani, Silvia Petroni, Giovanni Fiorentini

We estimate energy spectra and fluxes at the Earth's surface of the cosmic and Galactic neutrino backgrounds produced by thermonuclear reactions in stars. The extra-galactic compon…

First measurement of reactor neutrino oscillations at JUNO

Angel Abusleme, Thomas Adam, Kai Adamowicz +1131

Neutrino oscillations, a quantum effect manifesting at macroscopic scales, are governed by lepton flavor mixing angles and neutrino mass-squared differences that are fundamental pa…

Initial performance results of the JUNO detector

Angel Abusleme, Thomas Adam, Kai Adamowicz +1131

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) started physics data taking on 26 August 2025. JUNO consists of a 20-kton liquid scintillator central detector, surrounded by a…

Accuracy of Flight Altitude Measured with Low-Cost GNSS, Radar and Barometer Sensors: Implications for Airborne Radiometric Surveys

Matteo Alberi, Marica Baldoncini, Carlo Bottardi +9

Flight height is a fundamental parameter for correcting the gamma signal produced by terrestrial radionuclides measured during airborne surveys. The frontiers of radiometric measur…
