Gamma Backgrounds for Experiments at the High Flux Isotope Reactor
M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, C. Baldenegro +53
This article describes the deployment of a germanium detector at Oak Ridge National Lab's High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) for the purpose of understanding the energy and spatial d…
Probing Long-Lived Particle Production in Muon Decays at the SNS with a Highly Capable Hydrocarbon Detector
M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, C. D. Bass +43
The Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is a prolific muon producer, making it an ideal location for studying dark sector particles produced in…
New Deep Learning Data Analysis Method for PROSPECT using GAPE: Genetic Algorithm Powered Evolution
M. Adriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, C. Bass +40
We propose a genetic algorithm powered evolution (GAPE) method to create deep learning solutions for energy and position estimation for reactor antineutrino interactions in the Pre…
Performance of a SiPM-based, plastic scintillator muon veto prototype for CUPID
Maya Moore, Samantha Pagan, Emily G. Pottebaum +8
CUPID will be a next-generation experiment searching for neutrinoless double beta decay in the inverted mass ordering regime. The reduction of backgrounds in the region of interest…

An aboveground 60-kg reactor-antineutrino detector prototype, comprised of a 2-dimensional array of 36 Li-doped pulse shape sensitive plastic scintillator bars, is described.…
Machine Learning for Single-Ended Event Reconstruction in PROSPECT Experiment
M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, C. D. Bass +43
The Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment, PROSPECT, was a segmented antineutrino detector that successfully operated at the High Flux Isotope Reactor in Oak Ridge,…
Reactor Antineutrino Directionality Measurement with the PROSPECT-I Detector
M. Andriamirado, B. Balantekin, C. D. Bass +46
The PROSPECT-I detector has several features that enable measurement of the direction of a compact neutrino source. In this paper, a detailed report on the directional measurements…
Final Search for Short-Baseline Neutrino Oscillations with the PROSPECT-I Detector at HFIR
M. Andriamirado, B. Balantekin, C. D. Bass +44
The PROSPECT experiment is designed to perform precise searches for antineutrino disappearance at short distances (7 - 9~m) from compact nuclear reactor cores. This Letter reports…
Nonfuel Antineutrino Contributions in the High Flux Isotope Reactor
A. B. Balantekin, H. R. Band, C. D. Bass +53
Reactor neutrino experiments have seen major improvements in precision in recent years. With the experimental uncertainties becoming lower than those from theory, carefully conside…
