1. 1. Neutron backgrounds in neutrino-nucleus scattering at the European Spallation Source

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen; Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik

   Author : José Guilherme Rodrigues de Albuquerque Vale; [2023]
   Keywords : Neutrino-nucleus scattering; background; PHITS; weight window; ESS; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Being, when built, the most powerful neutron accelerator in the world, there will be a large number of potential discoveries at the European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund. One of the most exciting of these, from a particle physics point of view, is the Coherent Elastic Neutrino-Nucleus Scattering (CEνNS). READ MORE

3. 2. Neutrino Hotspots in the Universe: a Sensitivity Study Using the IceCube Neutrino Observatory

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

   Author : Kiana Ghiassi; Julia Salwén; [2023]
   Keywords : Astrophysics; Neutrino Astronomy; Particle Physics; Neutrinos; Blazars; Sensitivity Study; IceCube Neutrino Obesvatory;

   Abstract : In this report, we aim to assess the sensitivity and 5$\sigma$ discovery potential of IceCube, the largest neutrino observatory on Earth, and compare it with prior findings. Our thesis will focus on a point source analysis, exploring the energy and declination dependencies, with particular emphasis on high-energy neutrinos. READ MORE

5. 4. Assessment of Modern Statistical Modelling Methods for the Association of High-Energy Neutrinos to Astrophysical Sources

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Valentin Minoz; [2021]
   Keywords : Statistics; Astrophysics; Neutrino sources; Mixture models; Monte Carlo methods; Maximum likelihood estimation; Statistik; Astrofysik; Neutrinokällor; Blandningsmodeller; Monte Carlo-metoder; Maximum likelihood-metoden;

   Abstract : The search for the sources of astrophysical neutrinos is a central open question in particle astrophysics. Thanks to substantial experimental efforts, we now have large-scale neutrino detectors in the oceans and polar ice. READ MORE

6. 5. PHITS simulations for CEvNS experiments at ESS

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Partikel- och kärnfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Jesper Karlsson Gumprecht; [2021]
   Keywords : PHITS; CEvNS; Coherent; ESS; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : Recently the interest for coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering experiments has increased since it is believed that through these experiments, a wide range of new physics, e.g., sterile neutrinos, could be discovered. READ MORE
