Detection of the Free Neutrino: A Confirmation

Cowan, Reines, and others’ 1956 Detection of the Free Neutrino: A Confirmation, published in Science, is one of the program’s working technical references. Cited in Book IV (Categorical Microcosm), Part 3, Chapter The Neutrino as Time Eigenmode, where the program draws on it in the context of “Cowan and Reines placed a detector near the Savannah River reactor, looking for inverse beta decay: ν_e + p → n + e^+.”
