Conical liquid noble gas apparatus for neutrino physics.
Coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEνNS) is a recently demonstrated novel process of neutrino interaction. It provides numerous avenues to advance our sensitivity to new physics beyond the Standard Model and enables a miniaturization of otherwise massive neutrino detectors, opening up the possibility of technological applications. The development the development of an innovative single-phase noble liquid time projection chamber (TPC) to detect CEνNSis proposed. Two distinct ideas are combined to maximize the potential of the technique. 1) The signal will be amplified through electroluminiscence (EL). 2) The TPC will be shaped as a conical frustum. Single-phase EL is unaffected…
