Reactor Antineutrino Oscillations and Geoneutrinos in SNO+

Abstract

SNO+ is a multipurpose liquid-scintillator neutrino detector located 2 km underground at SNOLAB, Canada. Three large nuclear reactors at baselines of 240-350 km allow a precise measurement of the neutrino oscillation parameter $\Delta m_{21}^2$ and, to a lesser extent, ${\theta }_{12}$. A spectral analysis is performed, simultaneously fitting $\Delta m_{21}^2$, ${\theta }_{12}$, the reactor antineutrino flux, background rates, and associated systematics. Using data collected between May 2022 and July 2025, corresponding to a livetime of 685 days, a value of $\Delta m_{21}^2=(7.93_{-0.24}^{+0.21})\times 10^{-5}$ eV${}^2$ is obtained. This result is compatible with other long-baseline reactor antineutrino measurements by KamLAND and JUNO. SNO+ has also made the first measurement of the geoneutrino flux in the Western Hemisphere, measuring $49_{-12}^{+13}$ TNU, in agreement with predictions from geological models.
