AI总结:

JSNS$^2$实验首次测试反电子中微子事件过剩,发现与背景一致,但尚未确认异常,未来将继续数据采集并建设新探测器。

摘要:

JSNS$^2$(J-PARC中性中微子搜索实验)位于J-PARC物质与生命科学设施(MLF)内,旨在直接测试由LSND(液态闪烁体中微子探测器)指示的反电子中微子事件过剩现象。短脉冲质子束与含钆的液态闪烁体的结合提供了优异的信噪比。本文报告了基于2022年收集数据的直接测试结果。应用所有事件选择标准后,观察到两个事件,与预期背景2.3±0.4事件一致。本报告中未发现反电子中微子事件过剩,然而由于LSND异常预期事件数为1.1±0.5,因此该结果尚未明确。数据采集自2021年开始,未来将继续进行。此外,为第二阶段实验JSNS$^2$-II新建了一个远距离探测器,标志着未来测量的重要里程碑。

英文摘要:

The JSNS$^2$ (J-PARC Sterile Neutrino Search at the J-PARC Spallation Neutron Source) experiment at the Material and Life Science Facility (MLF) of J-PARC is designed to directly test an excess on $\barν_{e}$ events which was indicated by LSND (Liquid Scintillator Neutrino Detector). The combination of a short-pulsed proton beam and a gadolinium-loaded liquid scintillator provides an excellent signal-to-noise ratio. In this article, we report the first results of a direct test based on data collected in 2022. After applying all event selection criteria, two events are observed, consistent with the expected background of 2.3$\pm$0.4 events. No excess of $\barν_e$ events are seen in this report, however the expected number of events due to LSND anomaly is 1.1$\pm$0.5, thus this result is not yet conclusive. Data taking has been ongoing since 2021 and will continue in future runs. In addition, a new far detector has recently been constructed for the second phase experiment, JSNS$^2$-II, marking an important milestone toward forthcoming measurements.
