1 Neutrinos from nuclear reactors Nuclear reactors are a very intense source of ν e from β decays of the fission fragments. Every fission reaction emits about 00 MeV of energy and 6 ν e. Flux 10 0 ν e s 1 GWatt 1, isotropic, E(ν e ) 0.5 MeV. Latest oscillation experiments look for ν e disappearance at different baselines: L = O(km) Palo Verde L = O(150km) atmospheric regime: Chooz, solar regime: Kamland Mauro Mezzetto, INFN Padova () Neutrini da Reattori Corso di Dottorato, Maggio / 1
2 Neutrino flux Detect absolute number of neutrino interaction and distortions of their spectrum prompt positron signal, energy range. ν e p e + n n + p d + γ(.

Definition of the experimental observable: positron momentum spectrum. (see annotations) (a) a) ν _ e interactions in detector [1/(day MeV)] b) ν _ e flux at detector [108 /(s MeV cm )] c) σ(e ν ) [10 - cm ] (b) E ν (MeV) (c) Mauro Mezzetto, INFN Padova () Neutrini da Reattori Corso di Dottorato, Maggio 009 / 1
3 Thermal power of the reactor The leading reaction is 5 U fission: 5 U + n X 1 + X + n The lightest fragment have on average A 9, the heavier: A 10. Stable nuclei with A = 9, 10 are 0 Zr 9 e 58 Ce U has 98 protons and 1 neutrons to reach the stability, on average it needs 6 neutron β decays 6 ν e. U 5 fission yield (%) Mass number A The interaction process ν e +p n+e + has a threshold of 1.8 MeV only 5% of neutrinos can be detected. All the neutrinos from low Q-value processes, as nuclear fuel stored in the reactors and radioactivity induced in the nuclear plant structures, don t produce detectable neutrinos. The fuel composition of the reactor core changes with the time, it s under monitor (reactor power depends from its composition).

4 From fission rate to the ν e spectrum The ν e spectrum of three of the four principal fission nuclei: ( 5 U, 9 Pu, 1 Pu), has been derived by measuring the electron spectrum. The fourth: 8 U, has been computed from nuclear models, as well all the processes in the decay chain. Systematic error: 1%. From ν e to positrons ν e + p n + e + cross section: σ (0) tot = σ 0 (f + g ) E e (0) p e (0) = ( ) E e (0) p e (0) 1 MeV 10 cm(1), E e (0) = E ν (M n M p ): positron energy (neglecting neutron recoil, marginal effect) p e (0) momentum, f = 1, g = 1.6 vector and axial coupling constants cosθ e σ tot [10 cm ] E ν [MeV] Solid lines: O(1). predictions ato(1/m n), dashed σ 0 = G F cos θ C (1 + R inner π ), () radiative corrections: R inner 0.0.

Note that the two experiments offer different breakdowns of their systematics. For simplicity we do not show the systematics for the Palo Verde ON-OFF analysis.

11 How to build the signal/exclusion plot (II) The minimum of the χ distribution is the best fit The region at a given confidence level (CL) is defined by the contour at a given χ from the minimum. The CL is computed from the probability distribution of a χ at two degrees of freedom (sin θ, m ) Question: Why χ and not χ? Hint: Why two degrees of freedom?

Both the absolute rate and the spectrum are used. Analysis B Uses the different baseline ( L = m) of the two reactors. Many systematic errors cancel, but statistical errors are bigger and the m sensitivity is reduced by the shorter baseline. Analysis C Only spectrum information is used.
