Abstract

The SNO+ collaboration reports its first spectral analysis of long-baseline reactor antineutrino oscillation using 114 tonne-years of data. Fitting the neutrino oscillation probability to the observed energy spectrum yields constraints on the neutrino mass-squared difference Δm212\Delta m^2_{21}. In the ranges allowed by previous measurements, the best-fit Δm212\Delta m^2_{21} is (8.851.33+1.10^{+1.10}_{-1.33}) ×\times 105^{-5} eV2^2. This measurement is continuing in the next phases of SNO+ and is expected to surpass the present global precision on Δm212\Delta m^2_{21} with about three years of data.
