A Pilot Experiment with Reactor Neutrinos in Taiwan
Henry T. Wong, Jin Li

TL;DR
This paper discusses a pilot experiment in Taiwan using a CsI(Tl) crystal calorimeter to study reactor neutrinos and assess the feasibility of long baseline neutrino experiments, involving international collaboration since 1996.
Contribution
It presents the conceptual design and physics goals of Taiwan's first pilot reactor neutrino experiment with a novel detector setup.
Findings
Feasibility of using a 600 kg CsI(Tl) detector for neutrino interactions.
Initial design considerations for a long baseline reactor neutrino experiment.
International collaboration established since 1996 for neutrino physics in Taiwan.
Abstract
A Collaboration comprising Taiwan and mainland Chinese scientists has been built up since 1996 to pursue a experimental program in neutrino and astro-particle physics in Taiwan. A pilot experiment to be performed at the Nuclear Power Station II in Taiwan is now under intense preparation. It will make use of a 600 kg CsI(Tl) crystal calorimeter to study various neutrino interactions. The feasibility of performing a long baseline reactor neutrino experiment will also be investigated. The conceptual design and the physics to be addressed by the pilot experiment are presented.
