Abstract Low energy anti-neutrinos detected from reactors or other sources have typically used the conversion of an anti-neutrino on Hydrogen, producing a positron and free neutron. This neutron is subsequently captured secondary element with large capture cross-section such as gadolinium cadmium. With most captures gadolinium, it possible to get two three delayed gamma signals known occur. Modern experiments can make measurements timing order 25 ns. Fast electronics like these allow for...
The concept of putting a neutrino detector in close orbit the sun has been unexplored until very recently. primary scientific return is to vastly enhance our understanding solar interior, which major NASA goal. Preliminary calculations show that such spacecraft, if properly shielded, can operate space environments while taking data from interactions. These interactions be distinguished random background rates electromagnetic emissions, galactic charged cosmic-rays, and gamma-rays by using...
