Daya Bay experiment will use 200 ton 0.1% Gd-doped LS and 200 ton normal LSGd-TMHA + LAB + 3g/L PPO + 15mg/L bis-MSB

To ensure IDENTICAL detectors, all Gd-LS will be produced in multiple 4-ton batches and mixed in reservoir on-site.March 2009, a batch of 4 ton Gd-LS was produced successfully.

LS production has been started in Oct. 2010

Goal: Sin22 θ13 < 0.01 @ 90% CL in 3 years

Redundancy is a unique feature for this experiment:

Identical antineutrino detector modules to reduce errors and cross check.

Multiple muon veto:Two zones of Cerenkov detector + RPC at the top.Total efficiency > (99.5 0.25) %.
