The NOvA experiment has seen a 4.4σ signal of e appearance in a 2 GeVμ beam at a distance of 810 km. Using 12.33×1020 protons on target delivered to the Fermilab NuMI neutrino beamline, the experiment recorded 27 μe candidates with a background of 10.3 and 102μμ candidates. This new antineutrino data are combined with neutrino data to measure the parameters |Δm 2 32 | = 2.48 +0.11 -0.06 x 10 -3 eV2 / c4 and sin2 θ23 in the ranges …

A Precise Determination Of (Anti)Neutrino Fluxes With (Anti)Neutrino-Hydrogen Interactions, H. Duyang, B. Guo, Roberto Petti Aug 2019

A Precise Determination Of (Anti)Neutrino Fluxes With (Anti)Neutrino-Hydrogen Interactions, H. Duyang, B. Guo, Roberto Petti

We present a novel method to accurately determine the flux of neutrinos and antineutrinos, one of the dominant systematic uncertainty affecting current and future long-baseline neutrino experiments, as well as precision neutrino scattering experiment. Using exclusive topologies in v()-hydrogen interactions, vµp→µ+, µp → µ +pπ, and µp → µ + n with small hadronic energy, we achieve an overall accuracy on the relative fluxes better than 1% in the energy range covering most of the available flux. Since we cannot rely on simulations nor model …

The Cryogenic Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE) is the first bolometric experiment searching for neutrinoless double beta decay that has been able to reach the 1-ton scale. The detector consists of an array of 988 TeO2 crystals arranged in a cylindrical compact structure of 19 towers, each of them made of 52 crystals. The construction of the experiment was completed in August 2016 and the data taking started in spring 2017 after a period of commissioning and tests. In this work we present the neutrinoless double beta decay results of CUORE from examining a total TeO2 exposure …
