Neutrino-Oscillation Searches in the Short-Baseline Gallium Experiment BEST-2 with a [sup.65]Zn Source

The possibility of employing a [sup.65]Zn source in the gallium experiment BEST-2 with the aim of constraining the region of allowed oscillation parameters is examined. The source activity required for the BEST-2 experiment is calculated, and the size of the source and its effect on the results of o...

Summary:The possibility of employing a [sup.65]Zn source in the gallium experiment BEST-2 with the aim of constraining the region of allowed oscillation parameters is examined. The source activity required for the BEST-2 experiment is calculated, and the size of the source and its effect on the results of oscillation measurements are discussed along with the possibilities for producing such a source. Various schemes for implementing respective measurements are considered.
