KamLAND has measured the flux of nu;(e)'s from distant nuclear reactors. We find fewer nu;(e) events than expected standard assumptions about propagation at 99.95% C.L. In a 162 ton.yr exposure ratio observed inverse beta-decay to number without disappearance is 0.611+/-0.085(stat)+/-0.041(syst) for energies >3.4 MeV. context two-flavor neutrino oscillations with CPT invariance, all solutions solar problem except "large mixing angle" region are excluded.
We present results of a study neutrino oscillation based on 766 ton-year exposure KamLAND to reactor anti-neutrinos. observe 258 \nuebar\ candidate events with energies above 3.4 MeV compared 365.2 expected in the absence oscillation. Accounting for 17.8 background events, statistical significance \nuebar disappearance is 99.998%. The observed energy spectrum disagrees spectral shape at 99.6% and prefers distortion from effects. A two-neutrino analysis data gives \DeltaMSq =...

Radioactive isotopes produced through cosmic muon spallation are a background for rare-event detection in $\nu$ detectors, double-$\beta$-decay experiments, and dark-matter searches. Understanding the nature of cosmogenic backgrounds is particularly important future experiments aiming to determine pep CNO solar neutrino fluxes, which dominated by production $^{11}$C. Data from Kamioka liquid-scintillator antineutrino detector (KamLAND) provides valuable information better understanding these...
