We present a Monte Carlo model for degradation of 1-10,000 eV electrons in an atmosphere of methane. The electron impact cross sections for CH4 are compiled and analytical representations of these cross sections are used as input to the…
Monoenergetic muon neutrinos at 236 MeV are readily produced in intense medium-energy proton facilities ($\gtrsim$2-3~GeV) when a positive kaon decays at rest (KDAR; $K^+ \rightarrow \mu^+ \nu_\mu$). These neutrinos provide a unique…
The International Design Study for the Neutrino Factory (the IDS-NF) was established by the community at the ninth "International Workshop on Neutrino Factories, super-beams, and beta- beams" which was held in Okayama in August 2007. The…
The differential cross-sections for elastic and inelastic neutrino-deuteron scattering are calculated analytically using nucleon-nucleon effective field theory. For elastic scattering, the deuteron axial form factor and the deuteron strange…
Antineutrinos produced at nuclear reactors constitute a severe source of background for the detection of geoneutrinos, which bring to the Earth's surface information about natural radioactivity in the whole planet. In this framework we…
The unpolarized cross section for the electroproduction of the isoscalar $J^\pi = 3^+$ di-delta dibaryon $d^*$ is calculated for deuteron target using a simple picture of elastic electron-baryon scattering from the $\Delta \Delta (^7D_1)$…
The proposed high flux lithium antineutrino source is based on 7Li(n,g)8Li-activation and subsequent fast beta-decay (0.84 s) of the 8Li isotope with emission of hard antineutrinos with energy up to 13 MeV. In the discussed scheme the…
For electromagnetic cascades induced by electron-neutrinos in South Pole ice, the effective volume per detector element (phototube, radio antenna, or acoustic transducer) as a function of cascade energy is estimated, taking absorption and…
Technetium-99m ($^{99m}$Tc) is essential to more than 16 million diagnostic procedures performed annually in the United States. It is typically acquired on-site from generators containing $^{99}$Mo, in turn produced at nuclear reactor…
Neutrino scattering on electrons is considered as a tool for laboratory searches of the neutrino magnetic moment. We study inelastic $\bar\nu_ee^-$-scattering on electrons bound in the germanium (Z=32) and iodine (Z=53) atoms for…
We present an upper limit on the flux of ultra-high-energy down-going neutrinos for $E > 10^{18}\ \mbox{eV}$ derived with the nine years of data collected by the Telescope Array surface detector (05-11-2008 -- 05-10-2017). The method is…
Advanced nuclear fission, which encompasses various innovative nuclear reactor designs, could contribute to the decarbonization of the United States electricity sector. However, little is known about how cost-competitive these reactors…
We report on searches for neutrinos and antineutrinos from astrophysical sources performed with the Borexino detector at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso in Italy. Electron antineutrinos ($\bar{\nu}_e$) are detected in an organic…
Ultra-high-energy (UHE) neutrinos ($>10^{16}$ eV) can be measured cost-effectively using in-ice radio detection, which has been explored successfully in pilot arrays. A large radio detector is currently being constructed in Greenland with…
The uniform field assumption used to derive semi-classical cutoff energies of $10U_p$ for electron emission and $3.17U_p$ for high harmonic generation is applicable for ponderomotive amplitudes ($\propto E\lambda^2$) much smaller than the…
The International Linear Collider Technical Design Report (TDR) describes in four volumes the physics case and the design of a 500 GeV centre-of-mass energy linear electron-positron collider based on superconducting radio-frequency…
This study presents a new concept of segmented antineutrino detector based on hexagonal plastic scintillator bars for detecting antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor core. The choice of hexagonal scintillator bars is original and provides…
We have developed a neutrino detector with threshold energies from ~0.115 to 105 MeV in a clean detection mode almost completely void of accidental backgrounds. It was initially developed for the NASA $\nu$SOL project to put a solar…
Detection of high-energy neutrinos via the radio technique allows for an exploration of the neutrino energy range from $\sim10^{16}$\~eV to $\sim10^{20}$\~eV with unprecedented precision. These Askaryan detectors have matured in two pilot…
We propose and validate a method of anti-neutrino energy reconstruction for charged-current meson-less interactions on composite fully active targets containing hydrogen (such as hydrocarbon scintillator), which is largely free of the…
