Measurement of cosmic-ray muon spallation products in a xenon-loaded liquid scintillator with KamLAND

Zen Collaboration, S. Abe, S. Asami +63

Cosmic-ray muons produce various radioisotopes when passing through material. These spallation products can be backgrounds for rare event searches such as in solar neutrino, double…
