Title: Independent measurement of the neutrino mixing angle $θ_{13}$ via neutron capture on hydrogen at Daya Bay

Abstract

A new measurement of the θ₁₃ mixing angle has been obtained at the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment via the detection of inverse beta decays tagged by neutron capture on hydrogen. The antineutrino events for hydrogen capture are distinct from those for gadolinium capture with largely different systematic uncertainties, allowing a determination independent of the gadolinium-capture result and an improvement on the precision of the θ₁₃ measurement. With a 217-day antineutrino data set obtained with six antineutrino detectors and from six 2.9 GW_th reactors, the rate deficit observed at the far hall is interpreted as sin²2θ₁₃=0.083±0.018 in the three-flavor oscillation model. When combined with the gadolinium-capture result from Daya Bay, we obtain sin²2θ₁₃=0.089±0.008 as the final result for the six-antineutrino-detector configuration of the Daya Bay experiment.

New measurement of θ₁₃ via neutron capture on hydrogen at Daya Bay

Journal Article F. P. An - Physical Review D

This article reports an improved independent measurement of neutrino mixing angle θ₁₃ at the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment. Electron antineutrinos were identified by inverse β-decays with the emitted neutron captured by hydrogen, yielding a data set with principally distinct uncertainties from that with neutrons captured by gadolinium. With the final two of eight antineutrino detectors installed, this study used 621 days of data including the previously reported 217-day data set with six detectors. The dominant statistical uncertainty was reduced by 49%. Intensive studies of the cosmogenic muon-induced ⁹Li and fast neutron backgrounds and the neutron-capture energy selection efficiency, resultedmore »« less

Measurement of electron antineutrino oscillation based on 1230 days of operation of the Daya Bay experiment

Journal Article An, F. P. ; Balantekin, A. B. ; Band, H. R. ; ... - Physical Review D

Here, a measurement of electron antineutrino oscillation by the Daya Bay Reactor Neutrino Experiment is described in detail. Six 2.9-GWth nuclear power reactors of the Daya Bay and Ling Ao nuclear power facilities served as intense sources of ¯ν_e’s. Comparison of the ¯ν_e rate and energy spectrum measured by antineutrino detectors far from the nuclear reactors (~1500–1950 m) relative to detectors near the reactors (~350–600 m) allowed a precise measurement of ¯ν_e disappearance. More than 2.5 million ¯ν_e inverse beta-decay interactions were observed, based on the combination of 217 days of operation of six antineutrino detectors (December, 2011–July, 2012) withmore »« less

The detector system of the Daya Bay reactor neutrino experiment

Journal Article An, F. P. ; Bai, J. Z. ; Balantekin, A. B. ; ... - Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section A, Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment

The Daya Bay experiment was the first to report simultaneous measurements of reactor antineutrinos at multiple baselines leading to the discovery of ν¯e oscillations over km-baselines. Subsequent data has provided the world's most precise measurement of sin ²2θ₁₃ and the effective mass splitting Δm²_ee. The experiment is located in Daya Bay, China where the cluster of six nuclear reactors is among the world's most prolific sources of electron antineutrinos. Multiple antineutrino detectors are deployed in three underground water pools at different distances from the reactor cores to search for deviations in the antineutrino rate and energy spectrum due to neutrinomore »« less

Indication of Reactor ${\bar{ν}}_{e}$ Disappearance in the Double Chooz Experiment

Journal Article Abe, Y. ; Aberle, C. ; Akiri, T. ; ... - Physical Review Letters

The Double Chooz Experiment presents an indication of reactor electron antineutrino disappearance consistent with neutrino oscillations. A ratio of 0.944 ± 0.016 (stat) ± 0.040 (syst) observed to predicted events was obtained in 101 days of running at the Chooz Nuclear Power Plant in France, with two 4.25 GW_th reactors. The results were obtained from a single 10 m³ fiducial volume detector located 1050 m from the two reactor cores. The reactor antineutrino flux prediction used the Bugey4 measurement as an anchor point. The deficit can be interpreted as an indication of a non-zero value of the still unmeasured neutrinomore »« less
