  Cross sections for the disintegration of the deuteron via neutral-current
(NCD) and charged-current (CCD) interactions with reactor antineutrinos are
measured to be 6.08 +/- 0.77 x 10^(-45) cm-sq and 9.83 +/- 2.04 x 10^(-45)
cm-sq per neutrino, respectively, in excellent agreement with current
calculations. Since the experimental NCD value depends upon the CCD value, if
we use the theoretical value for the CCD reaction, we obtain the improved value
of 5.98 +/- 0.54 x 10^(-45) for the NCD cross section. The neutral-current
reaction allows a unique measurement of the isovector-axial vector coupling
constant in the hadronic weak interaction (beta). In the standard model, this
constant is predicted to be exactly 1, independent of the Weinberg angle. We
measure a value of beta^2 = 1.01 +/- 0.16. Using the above improved value for
the NCD cross section, beta^2 becomes 0.99 +/- 0.10.
