“…7 and 9 can be achieved by reducing uncertainties on the neutrino flux and detection. From the experimental side, novel detection techniques suitable to rare neutrino events are currently under discussion, such as the magnetized HPgTPC [101] and the Straw Tube Tracker [135,136]. Together with improved analysis techniques, these will help to improve upon our projections for the sensitivity of DUNE to new physics that might be hiding at light masses and small couplings.…”

Novel leptophilic neutral currents can be tested at upcoming neutrino oscillation experiments using two complementary processes, neutrino trident production and neutrino-electron (ν − e) elastic scattering. Considering generic anomaly-free Uð1Þ extensions of the Standard Model, we discuss the characteristics of ν − e scattering as well as e þ e − and μ þ μ − trident production at the DUNE near detector in the presence of such beyond the Standard Model scenarios. We then determine the sensitivity of DUNE in constraining the well-known L e − L μ and L μ − L τ models. We conclude that DUNE will be able to probe these leptophilic models with unprecedented sensitivity, covering unproved explanations of the ðg − 2Þ μ discrepancy.

“…The Straw Tube Tracker (STT) is designed to offer a control of the configuration, chemical composition and mass of the neutrino targets similar to the one achieved in electron scattering experiments [130,139]. The base tracker technology for a STT is provided by low-mass straws (5 mm diameter, 12 µm walls, 20 micron gold-plated tungsten wire, operated with Xe/CO 2 70/30 gas at 1.9 atm) similar to the ones used in many modern experiments for precision physics or the search for rare processes [140][141][142][143][144].…”

Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) Near Detector Conceptual Design Report

The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is an international, world-class experiment aimed at exploring fundamental questions about the universe that are at the forefront of astrophysics and particle physics research. DUNE will study questions pertaining to the preponderance of matter over antimatter in the early universe, the dynamics of supernovae, the subtleties of neutrino interaction physics, and a number of beyond the Standard Model topics accessible in a powerful neutrino beam. A critical component of the DUNE physics program involves the study of changes in a powerful beam of neutrinos, i.e., neutrino oscillations, as the neutrinos propagate a long distance. The experiment consists of a near detector, sited close to the source of the beam, and a far detector, sited along the beam at a large distance. This document, the DUNE Near Detector Conceptual Design Report (CDR), describes the design of the DUNE near detector and the science program that drives the design and technology choices. The goals and requirements underlying the design, along with projected performance are given. It serves as a starting point for a more detailed design that will be described in future documents.

“…• Indirect BSM searches through precision measurements of neutrino scattering properties: in the ND complex, for example, through precision measurements of sin 2 θ W [227]. • BSM searches using the ND as a short-baseline oscillation experiment: the DUNE ND is located at a distance of 570 m from the neutrino beam target, but is illuminated by a neutrino beam with energy peaking at 2.5 GeV (the reference beam design) and a beam with 5-10 GeV neutrinos (a high-energy beam-tuning option).…”

The combination of the high intensity proton beam facilities and massive detectors for precision measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters including the charge-parity violating (CPV) phase will open the door to help make beyond the standard model (BSM) physics reachable even in low energy regimes in the accelerator-based experiments. Large-mass detectors with highly precise tracking and energy measurements, excellent timing resolution, and low energy thresholds will enable the searches for BSM phenomena from cosmogenic origin, as well. Therefore, it is also conceivable that BSM topics in the next-generation neutrino experiments could be the dominant physics topics in the foreseeable future, as the precision of the neutrino oscillation parameter and CPV measurements continue to improve.This paper provides a review of the current landscape of BSM theory in neutrino experiments in two selected areas of the BSM topics—dark matter and neutrino related BSM—and summarizes the current results from existing neutrino experiments to set benchmarks for both theory and experiment. This paper then provides a review of upcoming neutrino experiments throughout the next 10 to 15 year time scale and their capabilities to set the foundation for potential reach in BSM physics in the two aforementioned themes. An important outcome of this paper is to ensure theoretical and simulation tools exist to carry out studies of these new areas of physics, from the first day of the experiments, such as Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment in the U.S. and Hyper-Kamiokande Experiment in Japan.
