| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The feasibility of the separation performance between neutrino and anti-neutrino interactions in accelerator and atmospheric neutrino experiments was studied in this research project. SK-Gd, where anti-neutrino signal is improved by adding Gadolinium into pure water inside Super-Kamiokande detector, is planning. Based on the detailed simulation study, we found that the performance of water Cherenkov detector is not significantly affected by the addition of Gadolinium and the signal of anti-neutrino from Gadolinium reaction is possible to detect with high efficiency. We conclude that anti-neutrino separation performance will be improved in SK-Gd for accelerator and atmospheric neutrino measurements.
