Pion LINAC as an Energy-Tagged Neutrino Source

ORAL

Abstract

The energy spectrum and flux of neutrinos from a linear pion accelerator are calculated analytically under the assumption of a uniform accelerating gradient. The energy of a neutrino from this source reacting in a detector can be determined from timing and event position information.
