The PROSPECT Physics Program
J. Ashenfelter, B. Balantekin, H. R. Band +61
The Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment, PROSPECT, is designed to make a precise measurement of the antineutrino spectrum from a highly-enriched uranium reactor a…
Measurement of Radiation Damage of Water-based Liquid Scintillator and Liquid Scintillator
Lindsey J. Bignell, Milind V. Diwan, Sunej Hans +7
Liquid scintillating phantoms have been proposed as a means to perform real-time 3D dosimetry for proton therapy treatment plan verification. We have studied what effect radiation…
Light Collection and Pulse-Shape Discrimination in Elongated Scintillator Cells for the PROSPECT Reactor Antineutrino Experiment
J. Ashenfelter, B. Balantekin, H. R. Band +63
A meter-long, 23-liter EJ-309 liquid scintillator detector has been constructed to study the light collection and pulse-shape discrimination performance of elongated scintillator c…
Measurement of the Reactor Antineutrino Flux and Spectrum at Daya Bay
Daya Bay Collaboration, F. P. An, A. B. Balantekin +220
This Letter reports a measurement of the flux and energy spectrum of electron antineutrinos from six 2.9~GW nuclear reactors with six detectors deployed in two near (effecti…
Characterization and Modeling of a Water-based Liquid Scintillator
Lindsey J. Bignell, Dmitriy Beznosko, Milind V. Diwan +9
We have characterised Water-based Liquid Scintillator (WbLS) using low energy protons, UV-VIS absorbance, and fluorescence spectroscopy. We have also developed and validated a simu…
The Detector System of The Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment
F. P. An, J. Z. Bai, A. B. Balantekin +330
The Daya Bay experiment was the first to report simultaneous measurements of reactor antineutrinos at multiple baselines leading to the discovery of oscillations over km-…
The NuMI Neutrino Beam
P. Adamson, K. Anderson, M. Andrews +187
This paper describes the hardware and operations of the Neutrinos at the Main Injector (NuMI) beam at Fermilab. It elaborates on the design considerations for the beam as a whole a…
Background Radiation Measurements at High Power Research Reactors
J. Ashenfelter, B. Balantekin, C. X. Baldenegro +58
Research reactors host a wide range of activities that make use of the intense neutron fluxes generated at these facilities. Recent interest in performing measurements with relativ…
A new measurement of antineutrino oscillation with the full detector configuration at Daya Bay
Daya Bay Collaboration, F. P. An, A. B. Balantekin +214
We report a new measurement of electron antineutrino disappearance using the fully-constructed Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment. The final two of eight antineutrino detectors w…
The Intermediate Neutrino Program
C. Adams, J. R. Alonso, A. M. Ankowski +186
The US neutrino community gathered at the Workshop on the Intermediate Neutrino Program (WINP) at Brookhaven National Laboratory February 4-6, 2015 to explore opportunities in neut…
