Reactor neutrinos in a gadolinium-loaded Super-Kamiokande

In July of 2020, Super-Kamiokande (SK), a 50 kt water Cherenkov detector, entered its new phase: SK-Gd [1]. In this phase, the detector’s once-ultrapure water was doped with 0.02% gadolinium sulphate octahydrate by mass, increased to 0.06% in July 2022. This provides far greater sensitivity to neutr...
