Hanohano:A Deep Ocean Antineutrino Observatory (2008)
Batygov, M., Dye, S. T., Learned, J. G., Matsuno, S., Pakvasa, S., Varner, G.
This paper presents the science potential of a deep ocean antineutrino observatory being developed at Hawaii and elsewhere. The observatory design allows for relocation from one site to another....
Earth Radioactivity Measurements with a Deep Ocean Anti-neutrino Observatory (2006)
Dye, S. T., Guillian, E., Learned, J. G., Maricic, J., Matsuno, S., Pakvasa, S., ...
We consider the detector size, location, depth, background, and radio-purity required of a mid-Pacific deep-ocean instrument to accomplish the twin goals of making a definitive measurement of the...
A Search for Very High Energy Neutrinos from Active Galactic Nuclei (1997)
Bolesta, J. W., Bradner, H., Camerini, U., Clem, J., Dye, S. T., George, J., ...
We report the results of a search for neutrino-induced particle cascades using a deep ocean water Cherenkov detector. The effective mass of the detector, a string of seven 40 cm diameter...
IMB-3: a large water Cherenkov detector for nucleon decay and neutrino interactions (1993)
Becker-Szendy, R., Bionta, Richard M., Bratton, C. B., Casper, David W., Claus, R., Cortez, B. G., ...
The IMB experiment, a large water Cherenkov detector which began data collection in September 1982, has undergone several upgrades to improve light collection, on-line processing power, data...
Neutrino astrophysics with IMB: past, present, and future (1988)
Casper, David W., Sulak, Lawrence R., Bionta, Richard M., Blewitt, G., Bratton, C. B., Casper, David W., ...
A burst of eight neutrino interactions occurring over a six second interval had been observed with the IMB detector. The closeness in time of the burst to the optical discovery of Supernova 1987a...
A waveshifter light collector for a water Cherenkov detector (1987)
Claus, R., Seidel, S., Sulak, Lawrence R., Bionta, Richard M., Blewitt, G., Bratton, C. B., ...
A device has been developed which is capable of doubling the light collection capability of a 5 inch hemispherical photomultiplier tube. Known as a "waveshifter plate", its geometry is adaptable to...
Limits on the flux of energetic neutrinos from the sun (1987)
Losecco, J. M., Vander Velde, John Christian, Bionta, Richard M., Blewitt, G., Bratton, C. B., Casper, David W., ...
A number of authors have proposed mechanisms by which the sun could be a strong source of energetic neutrinos. We search for an excess signal of penetrating neutral particles from the direction of...
