MaGe-a Geant4-Based Monte Carlo Application Framework for Low-Background Germanium Experiments (2010, methodology): “Experimental data are from the [54] (reported in [43]) and from [55].”
Improved measurements of the neutrino mixing angle θ13 with the Double Chooz detector (2014, methodology): “In addition, the impact of 8He is also evaluated assuming a fraction of 8 ± 7 % based on the measurement by KamLAND [34], rescaled to account for the different energies of the cosmic muons illuminating the two experiments, and taken into account in the rate estimate and its uncertainty.”
Current Status and Future Prospects of the SNO+ Experiment (2015, methodology): “98MeV) is mainly produced by muon interactions with the carbon nuclei of the liquid scintillator. We expect a total of (1.14 0.21) 103 decays/kt/yr during operation, extrapolated from KamLAND data in [32]. This is about a factor 100 less than what was observed in Borexino [33] due to the deeper unde”
