论文摘要

高能量物理界可以从研究活动中的自然协同作用中受益于下一代大型水和中微子探测器，现在正在研究用于远程反应堆监测，发现和排除应用程序在合作不扩散的环境中。自2010年以来，由国家核安全管理局（NNSA）支持的美国不扩散研究人员一直在研究相对较大（100吨）的一系列可能应用，以对非常大的（数百千千座）水和闪烁剂中性中性探测器进行研究。同时，基本物理界一直在类似尺度上开发探测器，并且具有相似的设计功能，用于一系列高优先级物理主题，主要是基本中微子物理学。这些主题包括对梁和反应堆，太阳和地质中微子测量，超新星研究等的中微子振荡研究。美国国家实验室和大学正在进行的协同工作的示例包括兴奋剂的原型水和水基和不透明的闪光测试床和示威者，广泛的测试和行业伙伴关系，与大面积的快速位置敏感的光电层层管相关的概念和概念的发展以及可能的地下杂货及其基础的概念的概念。这两个社区之间的一些机会包括每两年应用的反医学物理会议，与参与这项研究的美国国家实验室的合作以及偶尔的NNSA资助机会，以支持非扩散和基础科学R＆D的融合，针对美国学术界。

The High Energy Physics community can benefit from a natural synergy in research activities into next-generation large-scale water and scintillator neutrino detectors, now being studied for remote reactor monitoring, discovery and exclusion applications in cooperative nonproliferation contexts. Since approximately 2010, US nonproliferation researchers, supported by the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA), have been studying a range of possible applications of relatively large (100 ton) to very large (hundreds of kiloton) water and scintillator neutrino detectors. In parallel, the fundamental physics community has been developing detectors at similar scales and with similar design features for a range of high-priority physics topics, primarily in fundamental neutrino physics. These topics include neutrino oscillation studies at beams and reactors, solar, and geological neutrino measurements, supernova studies, and others. Examples of ongoing synergistic work at U.S. national laboratories and universities include prototype gadolinium-doped water and water-based and opaque scintillator test-beds and demonstrators, extensive testing and industry partnerships related to large area fast position-sensitive photomultiplier tubes, and the development of concepts for a possible underground kiloton-scale water-based detector for reactor monitoring and technology demonstrations. Some opportunities for engagement between the two communities include bi-annual Applied Antineutrino Physics conferences, collaboration with U.S. National Laboratories engaging in this research, and occasional NNSA funding opportunities supporting a blend of nonproliferation and basic science R&D, directed at the U.S. academic community.
