Description
The Reactor Operations Antineutrino Detection Surface Testbed Rover (ROADSTR) prototype detector is a 60-kg reactor-antineutrino detector, comprised of a 2-dimensional array of 36 6Li-doped pulse-shape-sensitive plastic scintillator bars. It collected data recently at multiple locations with diverse environmental characteristics, including the underground P-Tunnel facility at the Nevada Nuclear Security Site, the shallow-overburden MiniBooNE electronics room at Fermi National Laboratory, and on-surface and basement laboratories at Livermore Lawrence National Laboratory. This poster will describe the details of these deployments, the data collected at each facility, and preliminary results, which can be used to benchmark background models for neutrino-based application use cases using the Mobile Antineutrino Demonstrator or other detectors.
