Measurement of the cosmogenic neutron yield in Super-Kamiokande with gadolinium loaded water

Kamiokande Collaboration, M. Shinoki, K. Abe +238

Cosmic-ray muons that enter the Super-Kamiokande detector cause hadronic showers due to spallation in water, producing neutrons and radioactive isotopes. Those are a major backgrou…

Searching for neutrinos from solar flares across solar cycles 23 and 24 with the Super-Kamiokande detector

K. Okamoto, K. Abe, Y. Hayato +242

Neutrinos associated with solar flares (solar-flare neutrinos) provide information on particle acceleration mechanisms during the impulsive phase of solar flares. We searched using…
