IsoDAR@Yemilab is a novel isotope-decay-at-rest experiment that has preliminary approval to run at the Yemi underground laboratory (Yemilab) in Jeongseon-gun, South Korea. In this technical report, we describe in detail the considerations…

IsoDAR seeks to place a high-power-cyclotron and target combination, as an intense source of $\bar{\nu}_e$ at the level of $\sim 10^{23}$/year, close to a kiloton-scale neutrino detector in order to gain sensitivity to very short-baseline…
