Executive Summary
We are developing (1) novel technologies that will increase the sensitivity of nuclear reactor antineutrino detectors that are deployable aboveground with reduced shielding requirements and (2) a first-of-its kind detection technique sensitive to the direction of a reactor antineutrino flux. This research supports national missions in nonproliferation and is relevant to newly proposed neutrino experiments that will test the Standard Model of particle physics.
