Sensitivity of Seismically Cued Antineutrino Detectors to Nuclear Explosions

Sensitivity of Seismically Cued Antineutrino Detectors to Nuclear Explosions

We evaluate the sensitivity of large gadolinium-doped water detectors to antineutrinos released by nuclear-fission explosions, using updated signal and background models and taking advantage of the capacity for seismic observations to provide an analysis trigger. Under certain realistic conditions,...
