نویسندگان
چکیده
The Taishan Antineutrino Observatory (TAO or JUNO-TAO) is a satellite detector for the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino (JUNO). JUNO aims at simultaneously probing two main frequencies of three-flavor neutrino oscillations, as well their interference related to mass ordering, distance ~53 km from powerful nuclear reactor complexes in China. Located near Taishan-1 reactor, TAO independently measures antineutrino energy spectrum with unprecedented resolution. experiment will realize detection rate about 2000 per day. In order achieve its goals, relying on cutting-edge technology, both photosensor and liquid scintillator (LS) development which expected have an impact future Dark Matter detectors. this paper, design special focus calorimetry discussed. addition, overview progress currently being made R&D LS technology frame project be presented.

متن کاملTerrestrial Antineutrino Flux Measurements
Electron antineutrinos accompanying the β-decays of long-lived isotopes of uranium, thorium, and potassium in the earth carry information about the quantity and distribution of these geologically important, heat-producing isotopes. This letter discusses terrestrial antineutrino flux measurements at both a continental and an oceanic site. A combined analysis of both measurements provides informa...
متن کاملAntineutrino science by KamLAND
KamLAND measured the ν̄ e's flux from distant nuclear reactors, and found fewer events than expected from standard assumptions about ν̄ e propagation at the 99.998% confidence level (C.L.). The observed energy spectrum disagrees with the expected spectral shape at 99.6% C.L., and prefers the distortion from neutrino oscillation effects. A two-flavor oscillation analysis of the data from KamLAND a...
متن کاملDirectional antineutrino detection.
We propose the first event-by-event directional antineutrino detector using inverse beta decay (IBD) interactions on hydrogen, with potential applications including monitoring for nuclear nonproliferation, spatially mapping geoneutrinos, characterizing the diffuse supernova neutrino background and searching for new physics in the neutrino sector. The detector consists of adjacent and separated ...

Every second greater than 10(25) antineutrinos radiate to space from Earth, shining like a faint antineutrino star. Underground antineutrino detectors have revealed the rapidly decaying fission products inside nuclear reactors, verified the long-lived radioactivity inside our planet, and informed sensitive experiments for probing fundamental physics. Mapping the anisotropic antineutrino flux an...
