The near detector of the forthcoming Double Chooz experiment will collect $1.6\times10^5$ events per year, enough to determine the average neutrino direction with a $1 σ$ half-cone aperture of $2.3^\circ$ in one year. It is more difficult to separate the two Chooz reactors that are viewed at a separation angle $ϕ=30^\circ$. If their strengths are known and approximately equal, the azimuthal location of each reactor is obtained with $\pm6^\circ$ ($1 σ$) and the probability of confusing them with a single source is less than 11%. Five year's data reduce this ``confusion probability'' to less than 0.3%, i.e., a $3 σ$ separation is possible. All of these numbers improve rapidly with increasing angular separation of the sources. For a setup with $ϕ=90^\circ$ and one year's data, the azimuthal $1 σ$ uncertainty for each source decreases to $\pm3.2^\circ$. Of course, for Double Chooz the two reactor locations are known, allowing one instead to measure their individual one-year integrated power output to $\pm11%$ ($1 σ$), and their five-year integrated output to $\pm4.8%$ ($1 σ$).7 pages, 10 figuresHigh Energy Physics - PhenomenologyExploiting the directional sensitivity of the Double Chooz near detectortext
