Search for Very-Short-Baseline Oscillations of Reactor Antineutrinos with the SoLid Detector

Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, L. Arnold +57

In this letter we report the first scientific result based on antineutrinos emitted from the BR2 reactor at SCK CEN. The SoLid experiment uses a novel type of highly granular detec…

Optimisation of the scintillation light collection and uniformity for the SoLid experiment

Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, W. Beaumont +48

This paper presents a comprehensive optimisation study to maximise the light collection efficiency of scintillating cube elements used in the SoLid detector. Very short baseline re…

Performance of a full scale prototype detector at the BR2 reactor for the SoLid experiment

Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, L. Arnold +48

The SoLid collaboration has developed a new detector technology to detect electron anti-neutrinos at close proximity to the Belgian BR2 reactor at surface level. A 288kg protot…

A novel segmented-scintillator antineutrino detector

Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis, L. Arnold +53

The next generation of very-short-baseline reactor experiments will require compact detectors operating at surface level and close to a nuclear reactor. This paper presents a new d…

SoLid: A short baseline reactor neutrino experiment

SoLid Collaboration, Y. Abreu, Y. Amhis +59

The SoLid experiment, short for Search for Oscillations with a Lithium-6 detector, is a new generation neutrino experiment which tries to address the key challenges for high precis…

Probing neutron-hidden neutron transitions with the MURMUR experiment

C. Stasser, G. Terwagne, J. Lamblin +6

MURMUR is a new passing-through-walls neutron experiment designed to constrain neutron/hidden neutron transitions allowed in the context of braneworld scenarios or mirror matter mo…
