论文摘要
使用在Oak Ridge国家实验室(ORNL)的Spallation Neutron Source(SNS)中生产的中微子,连贯的合作研究了PB($ν_e$,X $ n $)过程,并使用了铅中微子诱导的中微子诱导的探测器(NIN)检测器。该检测器的数据与先前收集的有关此过程的相干数据共同拟合。对两个数据集的组合分析产生的横截面为$ 0.29^{+0.17} _ { - 0.16} $倍,使用实验测量的Gamow-Teller强度分布,Marley事件生成器预测的timerm timers,一致,没有NIN事件在1.8 $σ$中。这是第一个不弹性中微子核过程相干研究,其中几种计划利用SNS产生的低能中微子的高通量。
Using neutrinos produced at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), the COHERENT collaboration has studied the Pb($ν_e$,X$n$) process with a lead neutrino-induced-neutron (NIN) detector. Data from this detector are fit jointly with previously collected COHERENT data on this process. A combined analysis of the two datasets yields a cross section that is $0.29^{+0.17}_{-0.16}$ times that predicted by the MARLEY event generator using experimentally-measured Gamow-Teller strength distributions, consistent with no NIN events at 1.8$σ$. This is the first inelastic neutrino-nucleus process COHERENT has studied, among several planned exploiting the high flux of low-energy neutrinos produced at the SNS.
