Scientific paper

Possible antineutrino reactions that could be used to detect terrestrial antineutrinos are surveyed. The preferred target nuclides are He-3 and H-1. A liquid He-3 scintillation counter is suggested whose practicability depends on the feasibility of collecting at least 10 tons of He-3. For H-1, an H2O or liquid H2 scintillation counter with an appropriate activator can be designed which should be able to detect scintillation light in a tank containing at least 10,000 tons of H2O or 1000 tons of H2.
