Comparison between Variational Monte Carlo and Shell Model Calculations of Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay Matrix Elements in Light Nuclei
X. B. Wang, A. C. Hayes, J. Carlson +4
Benchmark comparisons between many-body methods are performed to assess the ingredients necessary for an accurate calculation of neutrinoless double beta decay matrix elements. She…
Analysis of the Daya Bay Reactor Antineutrino Flux Changes with Fuel Burnup
Anna Hayes, Gerard Jungman, Libby McCutchan +3
We investigate the recent Daya Bay results on the changes in the antineutrino flux and spectrum with the burnup of the reactor fuel. We find that the discrepancy between current mo…
Nuclear Zemach Moments and Finite-Size Corrections to Allowed Beta Decay
X. B. Wang, J. L. Friar, A. C. Hayes
The finite-size correction to -decay plays an important role in determining the expected antineutrino spectra from reactors at a level that is important for the reactor-neutrino…
The Possible Origin and Implications of the Shoulder in Reactor Neutrino Spectra
A. C. Hayes, J. L. Friar, G. T. Garvey +4
We analyze within a nuclear database framework the shoulder observed in the antineutrino spectra in current reactor experiments. We find that the ENDF/B-VII.1 database predicts tha…
Reaction-in-Flight Neutrons as a Test of Stopping Power in Degenerate Plasmas
A. C. Hayes, Gerard Jungman, A. E. Schulz +7
We present the first measurements of reaction-in-flight (RIF) neutrons in an inertial confinement fusion system. The experiments were carried out at the National Ignition Facility,…
Systematic Uncertainties in the Analysis of the Reactor Neutrino Anomaly
A. C. Hayes, J. L. Friar, G. T. Garvey +2
We examine uncertainties in the analysis of the reactor neutrino anomaly, wherein it is suggested that only about 94% of the emitted antineutrino flux was detected in short baselin…
