Short baseline neutrino experiment in nuclear reactors in Argentina: Contribution to the Latin American Strategy Forum for Research Infrastructure

Description

The neutrino community around the world is moving towards experiments in the low energy range, below the inverse beta decay process. The main reason for this is a large number of opportunities available in that range to study non-standard neutrinos interaction and physics beyond the standard model fields. Argentina has an excellent opportunity to take advantage of its experience in the nuclear field and in the development of low threshold detectors to develop a neutrino experiment using a nuclear reactor as neutrino sources. Here, we propose the use of the new technologies called the Skipper-CCD, in a short baseline reactor neutrino experiment. We also discuss the benchmark models and we compare the reliability to observe the Coherent Neutrino Nucleus scattering in the most powerful reactors available in Argentina.
