Description

SNO+ is a neutrino detector located 2 km underground in SNOLAB, Canada,
whose main goal is to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay. In
addition, being about 240 to 350 km away from three large nuclear power
plants, it is well situated to measure neutrino oscillation parameter
Δm_21^2. Analyses of antineutrino signals, including the observation of
geoneutrinos in SNO+ (first measurement in the Western Hemisphere and in the North American plate), are underway. This poster presents an overview of the oscillation analysis being performed at SNO+, with projections for the sensitivities to Δm_21^2,theta_12, and the geoneutrino flux.
