Scientific paper

We report on the initial results from a measurement of the anti-neutrino flux and spectrum from the three reactors of the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station using a segmented gadolinium-loaded scintillation detector at a distance of about 800 m. We find that the anti-neutrino flux agrees with that predicted in the absence of oscillations, excluding at 90% CL bar {ν } e - bar {ν } x oscillations with Δm2 > 1.12 × 10-3 eV2 for maximal mixing and sin2 2θ > 0.21 for large Δm2. Our results support the conclusion that the atmospheric neutrino oscillations observed by Super-Kamiokande do not involve νe.
