PROSPECT-II Physics Opportunities
M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, H. R. Band +59
The Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment, PROSPECT, has made world-leading measurements of reactor antineutrinos at short baselines. In its first phase, conducted…
Limits on Sub-GeV Dark Matter from the PROSPECT Reactor Antineutrino Experiment
M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin, H. R. Band +55
If dark matter has mass lower than around 1 GeV, it will not impart enough energy to cause detectable nuclear recoils in many direct-detection experiments. However, if dark matter…
Note on arXiv:2005.05301, 'Preparation of the Neutrino-4 experiment on search for sterile neutrino and the obtained results of measurements'
H. Almazán, M. Andriamirado, A. B. Balantekin +79
We comment on the claimed observation [arXiv:arXiv:2005.05301] of sterile neutrino oscillations by the Neutrino-4 collaboration. Such a claim, which requires the existence of a new…
