  1. 21. Simulation of birefringence effects for high-energy neutrino detectors

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Nils Heyer; [2021]
    Keywords : astroparticle physics; radio detection; high-energy neutrinos; birefringence;

    Abstract : The detection of high-energy neutrinos in the E > O(PeV) range requires newdetection techniques in order to cope with the decreasing flux. The radio detectionmethod uses Askaryan emission to detect these neutrinos. READ MORE

  3. 22. Measurement of the snow accumulation in Antarctica with a neutrino radio detector and extension to the measurement of the index-of-refraction profile

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Högenergifysik

    Author : Jakob Beise; [2021]
    Keywords : Askaryan; UHE neutrinos; in-ice radio detection; in-situ detector calibration; deep learning; radio neutrino detector; ARIANNA;

    Abstract : High-energy neutrino physics offers a unique way to investigate the most violent phenomena in our universe. The detection of energies above E > 1017 eV is most efficient using the Askaryan effect, where a neutrino-induced particle shower produces coherent radio emission that is detectable with radio antennas.

  4. 23. A literature review of FASERν - An emulsion detector for collider neutrinos

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

    Author : Lisa Andersson Loman; [2021]
    Keywords : physics; neutrinos; FASER; Standard Model; Beyond Standard Model; BSM; particles; elementary particles; neutrino cross sections; LHC; FASER nu; particle physics; physics experiment; CERN; long lived particles; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : In 2021, the ForwArd Search ExpeRiment (FASER) will start searching for light and weakly coupled particles 480m from the proton-proton collision point of ATLAS at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The FASER main detector will have a sub-detector, FASERν, sensitive to high-energy collider neutrinos of all flavours. READ MORE

  5. 24. Investigation of the Effects of Invisible Neutrino Decay at the Proposed ESSnuSB Experiment

    University essay from KTH/Fysik

    Author : Daniel Kempe; [2021]
    Keywords : Neutrino; Decay; Neutrino oscillations; Neutrino oscillation experiment; Neutrino; Sönderfall; Neutrinooscillationer; Neutrinooscillationsexperiment;

    Abstract : This thesis studies neutrino oscillations at the proposed ESSnuSB experiment and the effects of invisible decay, where the neutrino mass states are assumed to be able to decay, on the planned measurements and the physics potential for this experiment to detect neutrino decays. This is accomplished by simulating a combined scenario of neutrino oscillations and invisible neutrino decay. READ MORE

  6. 25. 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
