HRMT-60- RaDIATE Material Studies

HRMT-60 experiment was performed at the CERN-HiRadMat facility in October 2022 to understand thermal shock response of conventional materials and novel materials to support the design and operation of future multi-MW accelerator beam windows and secondary particle-production targets. This experiment, organized within the framework of the RaDIATE collaboration, builds on the previous HRMT-43 (BeGrid2) experiment, where a variety of materials in both non-irradiated and previously proton-irradiated conditions were tested. The primary goal was to understand the failure mechanisms, limits and flow behavior of the various material specimens, as well as compare and contrast the thermal shock response of previously irradiated materials to their non-irradiated counterparts. A total of 120 samples were tested at different beam conditions. This poster will present the preliminary results of several materials tested during this experiments.

Measurement of neutrino and antineutrino neutral-current quasielasticlike interactions on oxygen by detecting nuclear deexcitation γ rays

Neutrino- and antineutrino-oxygen neutral-current quasielasticlike interactions are measured at Super-Kamiokande using nuclear deexcitation γ rays to identify signal-like interactions in data from a 14.94 ( 16.35 ) × 10 20 protons-on-target exposure of the T2K neutrino (antineutrino) beam. The measured flux-averaged cross sections on oxygen nuclei are < σ ν - NCQE > = 1.70 ± 0.17 ( stat . ) - 0.38 + 0.51 ( syst . ) × 10 - 38 cm 2 / oxygen with a flux-averaged energy of 0.82 GeV and < σ ν ¯ - NCQE > = 0.98 ± 0.16 ( stat . ) - 0.19 + 0.26 ( syst . ) × 10 - 38 cm 2 / oxygen with a flux-averaged energy of 0.68 GeV, for neutrinos and antineutrinos, respectively. These results are the most precise to date, and the antineutrino result is the first cross section measurement of this channel. They are compared with various theoretical predictions. The impact on evaluation of backgrounds to searches for supernova relic neutrinos at present and future water Cherenkov detectors is also discussed.

Measurement of the muon neutrino charged-current cross sections on water, hydrocarbon and iron, and their ratios, with the T2K on-axis detectors

We report a measurement of the flux-integrated $\nu_{\mu}$ charged-current cross sections on water, hydrocarbon, and iron in the T2K on-axis neutrino beam with a mean neutrino energy of 1.5 GeV. The measured cross sections on water, hydrocarbon, and iron are $\sigma^{\rm{H_{2}O}}_{\rm{CC}} = (0.840\pm 0.010(\mathrm{stat.})^{+0.10}_{-0.08}(\mathrm{syst.}))\times10^{-38}\,\mathrm{cm}^2$/nucleon, $\sigma^{\rm{CH}}_{\rm{CC}} = (0.817\pm 0.007(\mathrm{stat.})^{+0.11}_{-0.08}(\mathrm{syst.}))\times10^{-38}\,\mathrm{cm}^2$/nucleon, and $\sigma^{\rm{Fe}}_{\rm{CC}} = (0.859\pm 0.003(\mathrm{stat.})^{+0.12}_{-0.10}(\mathrm{syst.}))\times10^{-38}\,\mathrm{cm}^2$/nucleon, respectively, for a restricted phase space of induced muons: $\theta_{\mu}<45^{\circ}$ and $p_{\mu}>$0.4 GeV/$c$ in the laboratory frame. The measured cross section ratios are ${\sigma^{\rm{H_{2}O}}_{\rm{CC}}}/{\sigma^{\rm{CH}}_{\rm{CC}}} = 1.028\pm 0.016(\mathrm{stat.})\pm 0.053(\mathrm{syst.})$, ${\sigma^{\rm{Fe}}_{\rm{CC}}}/{\sigma^{\rm{H_{2}O}}_{\rm{CC}}} = 1.023\pm 0.012(\mathrm{stat.})\pm 0.058(\mathrm{syst.})$, and ${\sigma^{\rm{Fe}}_{\rm{CC}}}/{\sigma^{\rm{CH}}_{\rm{CC}}} = 1.049\pm 0.010(\mathrm{stat.})\pm 0.043(\mathrm{syst.})$. These results, with an unprecedented precision for the measurements of neutrino cross sections on water in the studied energy region, show good agreement with the current neutrino interaction models used in the T2K oscillation analyses.
