Abstract

The Kamioka Liquid Scintillator Anti-Neutrino Detector (KamLAND) was established with the aim of searching for the oscillation of ̄ν_e's emitted from distant power reactors. Analysis of 162 ton·yr (145.1 d) of the reactor ̄ν_e data revealed that KamLAND demonstrated reactor ̄ν_e disappearance at long baselines and high confidence level for the first time.
