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

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. This literature review of FASERν focuses on the neutrino program of FASER and apart from presenting the physics reach for FASERν it will also give an overview of the main experiment and the main detector. The flux of high-energy collider neutrinos and the number of neutrinos expected to interact in the detector is presented. The physics possibilities for FASER and FASERν are then discussed and an outlook for similar experiments is given.
