TL;DR: The Precision Reactor Oscillation and Spectrum Experiment (PROSPECT) as discussed by the authors was designed to make a precise measurement of the antineutrino spectrum from a highly-enriched uranium reactor and probe eV-scale sterile neutrinos by searching for neutrino oscillations over meter-long distances.

TL;DR: The measured ^{235}U spectrum shape is consistent with a deviation relative to prediction equal in size to that observed at low-enriched uranium power reactors in the ν[over ¯]_{e} energy region of 5-7 MeV.

TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of a MICROMEGAS TPC when operated in a high-energy (up to 800 MeV ) neutron beam was investigated and it was found that neutron-induced reactions can cause discharges in some drift gas mixtures that are stable in the absence of the neutron beam.
