(Non)decoherence in the Daya Bay Experiment
نویسندگان
چکیده
The topic of decoherence in neutrino oscillations is intellectually interesting, but it is not relevant to a successful neutrino-oscillation experiment such as Daya Bay, in that if oscillations were observed, then there was essentially no decoherence in the experiment. As such, little knowledge of decoherence can be extracted from the data of a successful neutrino experiment, and a discussion of decoherence based only on such data will be of limited significance. A better picture of the (non)decoherence effects in a successful neutrino-oscillation experiment should be based on more than just the nominal data of the experiment.

متن کاملA Study of Systematic Uncertainties in the Daya Bay Neutrino Experiment using the GLoBES Software
The Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment is designed to set a precision upper limit on, if not pin-point, the value of the θ13 neutrino oscillation parameter. As shown in the parameterized Pontecorvo-Maki-Nakagawa-Sakata matrix, accurate measurement of θ13 may enable the study of CP violation in the lepton sector, in addition to supporting our understanding of neutrino oscillation arising from ...
متن کاملThe Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment
The Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment is designed to study the disappearance of antineutrinos from the Daya Bay nuclear power plant in China. The goal of this experiment is to measure the remaining unknown neutrino mixing parameter 613 with high precision: sin^(26i3) < 0.01. The experiment is presently under construction and it is anticipated that data acquisition will begin in 2011.
متن کاملAssembly and Installation of the Daya Bay Antineutrino Detectors
The Daya Bay reactor antineutrino experiment is designed to make a precision measurement of the neutrino mixing angle θ13, and recently made the definitive discovery of its nonzero value. It utilizes a set of eight, functionally identical antineutrino detectors to measure the reactor flux and spectrum at baselines of ∼ 300 2000m from the Daya Bay and Ling Ao Nuclear Power Plants. The Daya Bay a...
متن کاملWater Conditioning for the Daya Bay Experiment
This document outlines our understanding of the specifications and proposed technical design for the Daya Bay water conditioning system, as of June 2007. In June 2007, the Daya Bay experiment has passed CD-0 and CD-1 reviews, and is preparing for technical reviews on the way to a CD-2 panel, which is expected to convene in Fall 2007. This document means to summarize the current status of the sy...
