Exclusion and Verification of Remote Nuclear Reactors with a 1-Kiloton Gd-Doped Water Detector
O. A. Akindele, A. Bernstein, M. Bergevin +4
To date, antineutrino experiments built for the purpose of demonstrating a nonproliferation capability have typically employed organic scintillators, were situated as close to the…
Improvement in light collection of a photomultiplier tube using a wavelength-shifting plate
Austin Mullen, Oluwatomi Akindele, Marc Bergevin +2
Large-volume water-Cherenkov neutrino detectors are a light-starved environment, as each interaction produces only photons per MeV. As such, maximizing the light coll…
High Energy Physics Opportunities Using Reactor Antineutrinos
O. A. Akindele, J. M. Berryman, N. S. Bowden +14
Nuclear reactors are uniquely powerful, abundant, and flavor-pure sources of antineutrinos that continue to play a vital role in the US neutrino physics program. The US reactor ant…
Pulse-shape discrimination in water-based scintillators
Michael J. Ford, Natalia P. Zaitseva, M. Leslie Carman +4
This work describes a class of liquid scintillators that contain mostly water (>50 wt. % of the entire composition) and can discriminate between interactions induced by neutrons an…
