Title: Ortho-positronium observation in the Double Chooz experiment

Abstract

The Double Chooz experiment measures the neutrino mixing angle θ13 by detecting reactor ν¯e via inverse beta decay. The positron-neutron space and time coincidence allows for a sizable background rejection, nonetheless liquid scintillator detectors would

Improved measurements of the neutrino mixing angle θ₁₃ with the Double Chooz detector

Journal Article Abe, Y. ; dos Anjos, J. C. ; Barriere, J. C. ; ... - Journal of High Energy Physics (Online)

The Double Chooz experiment presents improved measurements of the neutrino mixing angle θ13 using the data collected in 467.90 live days from a detector positioned at an average distance of 1050 m from two reactor cores at the Chooz nuclear power plant. Several novel techniques have been developed to achieve significant reductions of the backgrounds and systematic uncertainties with respect to previous publications, whereas the efficiency of the ν¯e signal has increased. The value of θ13 is measured to be sin22θ13=0.090+0.032-0.029 from a fit to the observed energy spectrum. Deviations from the reactor ν¯e prediction observed above a prompt signalmore »« less

This article describes the setup and performance of the near and far detectors in the Double Chooz experiment. The electron antineutrinos of the Chooz nuclear power plant were measured in two identically designed detectors with different average baselines of about 400 m and 1050 m from the two reactor cores. Over many years of data taking the neutrino signals were extracted from interactions in the detectors with the goal of measuring a fundamental parameter in the context of neutrino oscillation, the mixing angle θ₁₃. The central part of the Double Chooz detectors was a main detector comprising four cylindrical volumesmore »« less

First Measurement of θ₁₃ From Delayed Neutron Capture on Hydrogen in the Double Chooz Experiment

Journal Article Abe, Y. ; Aberle, C. ; dos Anjos, J. C. ; ... - Physics Letters B

The Double Chooz experiment has determined the value of the neutrino oscillation parameter θ₁₃ from an analysis of inverse beta decay interactions with neutron capture on hydrogen. The analysis presented here uses a three times larger fiducial volume than the standard Double Chooz assessment, which is restricted to a region doped with gadolinium (Gd), yielding an exposure of 113.1 GW-ton-years. The data sample used in this analysis is distinct from that of the Gd analysis, and the systematic uncertainties are also largely independent, with some exceptions, such as the reactor neutrino flux prediction.

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
