First Measurement of θ_13 from Delayed Neutron Capture on Hydrogen in the Double Chooz Experiment
Double Chooz Collaboration, Y. Abe, C. Aberle +169
The Double Chooz experiment has determined the value of the neutrino oscillation parameter from an analysis of inverse beta decay interactions with neutron capture on hyd…
Reactor electron antineutrino disappearance in the Double Chooz experiment
Y. Abe, C. Aberle, J. C. dos Anjos +162
The Double Chooz experiment has observed 8,249 candidate electron antineutrino events in 227.93 live days with 33.71 GW-ton-years (reactor power x detector mass x livetime) exposur…
Probing the adsorption/desorption of amphiphilic polymers at the air-water interface during large interfacial deformations
C. Trégouët, Thomas Salez, N. Pantoustier +3
Hydrophobically modified polymers are good candidates for the stabilization of liquid interfaces thanks to the high anchoring energy of the hydrophobic parts. In this article we pr…
Indication for the disappearance of reactor electron antineutrinos in the Double Chooz experiment
Y. Abe, C. Aberle, T. Akiri +182
The Double Chooz Experiment presents an indication of reactor electron antineutrino disappearance consistent with neutrino oscillations. A ratio of 0.944 0.016 (stat) 0…
Ultraviolet-induced fluorescence of poly(methyl methacrylate) compared to 1,1,4,4-tetraphenyl-1,3-butadiene down to 4 K
E. Ellingwood, H. Benmansour, Q. Hars +16
Several particle-physics experiments use poly(methyl methacrylate) (a.k.a. PMMA or acrylic) vessels to contain liquid scintillators. Superluminal charged particles emitted from rad…
First Test of Lorentz Violation with a Reactor-based Antineutrino Experiment
Double Chooz Collaboration, Y. Abe, C. Aberle +164
We present a search for Lorentz violation with 8249 candidate electron antineutrino events taken by the Double Chooz experiment in 227.9 live days of running. This analysis, featur…
The Double Chooz antineutrino detectors
Double Chooz Collaboration, H. de Kerret, Y. Abe +247
This article describes the setup and performance of the near and far detectors in the Double Chooz experiment. The electron antineutrinos of the Chooz nuclear power plant were meas…
Direct Measurement of Backgrounds using Reactor-Off Data in Double Chooz
Y. Abe, C. Aberle, J. C. dos Anjos +170
Double Chooz is unique among modern reactor-based neutrino experiments studying disappearance in that data can be collected with all reactors off. In this paper, we pre…
Growth mechanism of polymer membranes obtained by H-bonding across immiscible liquid interfaces
J Dupré de Baubigny, P. Perrin, N. Pantoustier +3
Complexation of polymers at liquid interfaces is an emerging technique to produce all-liquid printable and self-healing devices and membranes. It is crucial to control the assembly…
