Measuring the mass of a sterile neutrino with a very short baseline reactor experiment

Journal Article Latimer, D C ; Escamilla, J ; Ernst, D J - Physical Review. C, Nuclear Physics

An analysis of the world's neutrino oscillation data, including sterile neutrinos, [M. Sorel, C. M. Conrad, and M. H. Shaevitz, Phys. Rev. D 70, 073004 (2004)] found a peak in the allowed region at a mass-squared difference {delta}m{sup 2} congruent with 0.9 eV{sup 2}. We trace its origin to harmonic oscillations in the electron survival probability P{sub ee} as a function of L/E, the ratio of baseline to neutrino energy, as measured in the near detector of the Bugey experiment. We find a second occurrence for {delta}m{sup 2} congruent with 1.9 eV{sup 2}. We point out that the phenomenon ofmore »« less

VERY LONG BASELINE NEUTRINO OSCILLATION EXPERIMENTS FOR PRECISE MEASURMENTS OF OSCILLATION PARAMETERS AND SEARCH FOR N MU YIELDS N EPSILON.

Technical Report DIWAN, M ; MARCIANO, W ; WENG, W ; ...

Brookhaven National Laboratory and collaborators started a neutrino working group to identify new opportunities in the field of neutrino oscillations and explore how our laboratory facilities can be used to explore this field of research. The memo to the working group and the charge are included in Appendix I. This report is the result of the deliberations of the working group. Previously, we wrote a letter of intent to build a new high intensity neutrino beam at BNL. A new intense proton beam will be used to produce a conventional horn focused neutrino beam directed at a detector located inmore »« less

Short-baseline electron antineutrino disappearance study by using neutrino sources from {sup 13}C + {sup 9}Be reaction

Journal Article Shin, Jae Won ; Cheoun, Myung-Ki ; Kajino, Toshitaka ; ... - Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics

To investigate the existence of sterile neutrino, we propose a new neutrino production method using {sup 13}C beams and a {sup 9}Be target for short-baseline electron antineutrino (ν-bar {sub e} ) disappearance study. The production of secondary unstable isotopes which can emit neutrinos from the {sup 13}C + {sup 9}Be reaction is calculated with three different nucleus-nucleus (AA) reaction models. Different isotope yields are obtained using these models, but the results of the neutrino flux are found to have unanimous similarities. This feature gives an opportunity to study neutrino oscillation through shape analysis. In this work, expected neutrino flux andmore »« less

Very-short-baseline electron neutrino disappearance

Journal Article Giunti, Carlo ; Laveder, Marco - Physical Review. D, Particles Fields

We consider possible indications of very-short-baseline (VSBL) electron neutrino disappearance into sterile neutrinos in MiniBooNE neutrino data and Gallium radioactive source experiments. We discuss the compatibility of such a disappearance with reactor and MiniBooNE antineutrino data. We find a tension between neutrino and antineutrino data which could be due to: (1) statistical fluctuations; (2) underestimate of systematic uncertainties; (3) exclusion of our hypothesis of very-short-baseline {nu}{sub e} disappearance; (4) a violation of CPT symmetry. Considering the first possibility, we present the results of a combined fit of all data, which indicate that P{sub {nu}{sub e}}{sub {yields}}{sub {nu}{sub e}}<1 with 97.04%more »« less
