Cosmogenic Neutron Production at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
B. Aharmim, S. N. Ahmed, A. E. Anthony +128
Neutrons produced in nuclear interactions initiated by cosmic-ray muons present an irreducible background to many rare-event searches, even in detectors located deep underground. M…

Measurement of neutron production in atmospheric neutrino interactions at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory
SNO Collaboration, B. Aharmim, S. N. Ahmed +129
Neutron production in GeV-scale neutrino interactions is a poorly studied process. We have measured the neutron multiplicities in atmospheric neutrino interactions in the Sudbury N…
